Currently Playing: Filling in the History - Ep 36 Part 2 - D&C 96, the Plat for Zion, and the French Farm

A conference is called to decide what to do with a newly purchased farm in Ohio owned previously by Peter French. This would eventually house the Church and the House of the Lord they planned to build. The conference could not decide what to do, so Joseph dictated a revelation on what to do. After this we get a plat for the planned City of Zion with more detail coming to light.
