Isaac Morley Farm Kirtland, Ohio, United States of America Isaac Morley Farm Kirtland, Ohio, United States of America Isaac Morley joined the Church in Kirtland (November 1830), one of the first converts of the area. He was later called to serve as a counselor to the presiding bishop, Edward Partridge in 1831. His farm served as the principal gathering place of the Saints in Kirtland after the revelation for the Saints to gather to the Ohio was given in Doc- trine & Covenants Section 37.1 Also, while living on the Morley Farm, Joseph and Emma had twins who passed away shortly after being born. Shortly thereafter, Julia Murdock, wife of John Murdock, passed away after giving birth to twins, and Joseph and Emma adopted their children.

  • Edward M. Eyring
    The Chemistry Department 1946-2000 Written by: Edward M. Eyring Assisted by: April K. Heiselt & Kelly Erickson Henry Eyring and the Birth of a Graduate Program In January 1946, Dr. A. Ray Olpin, a physicist, took command of the University of Utah. He recruited a number of senior people to his administration who also became faculty members in various academic departments. Two of these administrators were chemists: Henry Eyring, a professor at Princeton University, and Carl J. Christensen, a research scientist at Bell Laboratories. In the year 2000, the Chemistry Department attempts to hire a distinguished senior faculty member by inviting him or her to teach a short course for several weeks as a visiting professor. The distinguished visitor gets the opportunity to become acquainted with the department and some of the aspects of Utah (skiing, national parks, geodes, etc.) and the faculty discover whether the visitor is someone they can live with. The hiring of Henry Eyring did not fit this mold because he was sought first and foremost to beef up the graduate program for the entire University rather than just to be a faculty member in the Chemistry Department. Had the Chemistry Department refused to accept Henry Eyring as a full professor, he probably would have been accepted by the Metallurgy Department, where he had a courtesy faculty appointment for many years. Sometime in early 1946, President Olpin visited Princeton, NJ, and offered Henry a position as the Dean of the Graduate School at the University of Utah. Henry was in his scientific heyday having published two influential textbooks (Samuel Glasstone, Keith J.

  • The Ezra Booth Letters
    IN THE ARCHIVES The Ezra Booth Letters Dennis Rowley BOTH EZRA BOOTH, a Methodist cleric from Mantua, Ohio, and the Booth letters are familiar to students of early Mormon history. Booth was the first apostate to write publicly against the new Church, and most standard histories include an account of his conversion and almost immediate apostacy.1 He joined the Church in June 1831 after seeing Joseph Smith miraculously heal the paralyzed arm of his neighbor, Mrs. John Johnson. He left on a mission to Missouri with Joseph Smith and twenty-six others later that summer. Apparently, he expected to convert many people and perform miracles similar to Joseph's through the power of the priesthood to which he had been newly ordained. When neither converts nor miracles were readily forthcoming and when he began to see frailties in Joseph Smith and other Church leaders (including seeming incon- sistencies in some of the Prophet's teachings), he became disaffected from the Church. On 6 September 1831, shortly after Booth returned to Ohio from his Mis- souri mission, a Church conference barred him from preaching as an elder.2 Shortly thereafter, he shared some of his negative feelings in a letter to the Reverend Ira Eddy, a presiding elder in the Methodist Circuit of Portage County, Ohio, and sent a second letter to Edward Partridge, attempting to dissuade him from further affiliation with the Mormons. During the months of October, November, and December 1831, Booth's initial letter to Eddy, his letter to Partridge, and an additional eight letters to Eddy, were published in a weekly newspaper, the Ohio Star, of Ravenna.

  • Vienna Jacques: Eyewitness to the Jackson County Persecutions
    Winslow: Vienna Jacques 93 Vienna Jacques: Eyewitness to the Jackson County Persecutions Brady G. Winslow Tuesday, February 22, 1859 was a “clear & fine” day at the Church His- torian’s Office in Salt Lake City. George A. Smith and Wilford Woodruff met in council while Robert L. Campbell “compil[ed] history.” Leo Hawkins was sick, John Jaques was “on index” and John L. Smith “cop[ied] history” as Richard Bentley copied a letter “from Jos S. to V. J.”1 Although the recipient to Joseph Smith’s letter is unverified, “V. J.,” the initials most likely refers to Vienna Jacques, who visited the Historian’s Office that very day. Her purpose in coming to the office was probably two-fold—to provide the historians and staff additional information regarding the letter Joseph Smith had written to her twenty six-years earlier; and to clarify and correct a historical account published in the Latter-Day Saints’ Millennial Star regarding the tarring and feathering of Bishop Edward Partridge on the courthouse square in Indepen- dence, Missouri, on July 20, 1833. The printed account of the Partridge inci- dent reads: And when Bishop Partridge, who was without guile, and Elder Charles Allen, walked off, amid the horrid yells of an infuriated mob, coated like some un-named, unknown biped, and one of the sisters cried aloud, “while you, who have done this wicked deed, must suffer the vengeance of God, they, having endured persecution, can rejoice, for henceforth for them, is laid up a crown, eternal in the heavens”— surely there was a time of awful reflection, that man, unrestrained, like the brute beast, may torment the body; but God, in return, will punish the soul.2 Vienna, identifying herself as the sister who “cried aloud,” explained the situation from her perspective, pointing out that she did not say this to anyone, because she was alone.3 Her statement is important because it corrects an error Brady G.

  • Opening the Heavens: Seventy-Six Accounts of Joseph Smith's
    Desk in the room of the restored John Johnson home, Hiram, Ohio, in which “The Vision,” now known as Doctrine and Covenants 76, was received con- currently by Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon. Courtesy John W. Welch. Seventy-six Accounts of Joseph Smith’s Visionary Experiences Alexander L. Baugh oseph Smith the seer ushered in the dispensation of the fullness of Jtimes. His role was known and prophesied of anciently. The Lord promised Joseph of Egypt that in the last days a “choice seer” would come through his lineage and would bring his seed to a knowledge of the covenants made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (2 Ne. 3:7; jst Gen. 50:27–28). “That seer will the Lord bless,” Joseph prophesied, specifi- cally indicating that “his name shall be called after me” (2 Ne. 3:14–15; see also jst Gen. 50:33). Significantly, in the revelation received dur- ing the organizational meeting of the Church on April 6, 1830, the first title given to the first elder was that of seer: “Behold, there shall be a record kept . and in it thou [Joseph Smith] shalt be called a seer, a translator, a prophet, an apostle of Jesus Christ” (D&C 21:1). In the Book of Mormon, Ammon defined a seer as one who pos- sessed “a gift from God” to translate ancient records (Mosiah 8:13; see also 28:11–16). However, the seeric gift is not limited to translation, hence Ammon’s additional statement that “a seer is a revelator and a prophet also; and a gift which is greater can no man have” (Mosiah 8:16).
