  • “For This Ordinance Belongeth to My House”: the Practice of Baptism for the Dead Outside the Nauvoo Temple
    Alexander L. Baugh: Baptism for the Dead Outside Temples 47 “For This Ordinance Belongeth to My House”: The Practice of Baptism for the Dead Outside the Nauvoo Temple Alexander L. Baugh The Elders’ Journal of July 1838, published in Far West, Missouri, includ- ed a series of twenty questions related to Mormonism. The answers to the questions bear the editorial pen of Joseph Smith. Question number sixteen posed the following query: “If the Mormon doctrine is true, what has become of all those who have died since the days of the apostles?” The Prophet answered, “All those who have not had an opportunity of hearing the gospel, and being administered to by an inspired man in the flesh, must have it hereafter before they can be finally judged.”1 The Prophet’s thought is clear—the dead must have someone in mortality administer the saving ordinances for them to be saved in the kingdom of God. Significantly, the answer given by the Prophet marks his first known statement concerning the doctrine of vicari- ous work for the dead. However, it was not until more than two years later that the principle was put into practice.2 On 15 August 1840, Joseph Smith preached the funeral sermon of Seymour Brunson during which time he declared for the first time the doc- trine of baptism for the dead.3 Unfortunately, there are no contemporary accounts of the Prophet’s discourse. However, Simon Baker was present at the funeral services and later stated that during the meeting the Prophet read extensively from 1 Corinthians 15, then noted a particular widow in the congregation whose son had died without baptism.

Robert F. Lucid, 3 vols. (Cambridge: Belknap Press, 1968) Gale, Robert, Richard Henry Dana, Jr. (New York: Twayne Publishing, 1969) Shapiro, Samuel, Richard Henry Dana Jr., 1815-1882 ([East Lansing:] Michigan State University Press, 1961) SOURCE OF COLLECTION : Gift of Worcester Law Library, 1996 COLLECTION DESCRIPTION : Richard Henry Dana (1815-1882) was born in Cambridge, Mass., on 1 August 1815, the son of Richard Henry Dana (1787-1879), an essayist and poet. Richard, Jr. entered Harvard College in 1831, but he left in 1834 and went to sea. His experiences became the subject of his book Two Years Before the Mast , published in 1840. Dana re-entered Harvard in 1836, and graduated in 1837. He studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1840. His book The Seaman's Friend (1841) was a manual of general and legal advice for sailors. In 1841 Dana married Sarah Watson (1814-1907) of Hartford Conn. and they had six children. Dana first entered into practice in 1842 with his brother "Ned," Edward Trowbridge Dana (1818-1869). In 1848, this partnership was dissolved and Dana next entered into partnership with Francis Edward Parker (1821-1886). The majority of Dana's cases involved maritime disputes, and Dana frequently represented seamen who had been mistreated or deprived of their wages. He handled a wide variety of other legal work, however, including cases involving insurance claims, divorces, and occasional criminal trials.

  • Joseph Smith's Lessons on Leadership
    Education Week 2015 Prepare for “Joseph Smith’s Lessons on Leadership” Taught by Robert Spiel Retrieved from: http://josephsmith.net/article/leading-with-love?lang=eng Introduction Joseph Smith was a remarkable leader. He served as President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; mayor of Nauvoo, one of the largest cities in Illinois; lieutenant-general of the Nauvoo Legion; and in 1844 he was a candidate for President of the United States. What set Joseph Smith apart from other dynamic leaders was the source of his teachings: the God of Heaven. "The best way to obtain truth 1 and wisdom," he taught, "is not to ask it from books, but to go to God in prayer, and obtain divine teaching." 2 Joseph led with love. He recognized the worth of every soul as a child of God. When asked why so many followed him, he replied: "It is because I possess the principle of love. All I can offer the world is a good heart and a good hand." 3 The Prophet refused to place himself above others. Rather, as he humbly said, "I love to wait upon the Saints, and be a servant to all, hoping that I may be exalted in the due time of the Lord." 4 Bereft of pride, 5 Joseph personified the Lord's counsel: "Whosoever will be great among you, . shall be servant of all." 6 Joseph Smith Quotes Nothing is so much calculated to lead people to forsake sin as to take them by the hand, and watch over them with tenderness.

    American Crimes, Trials & Punishments 1819–1903 July 9, 2019 An Event That Advanced a Successful Movement to Reduce the Number of Capital Crimes in Massachusetts 1. [Broadside]. [Execution]. [Salem, Massachusetts]. Execution of Stephen Merrill Clark, Which Took Place on Winter Island, Salem, On Thursday, May 10, 1821. Salem (?), MA: S.n., 1821. 17-1/2" x 11-1/4" broadside. Text in four columns enclosed by black rules, small woodcut of a coffin below headline, untrimmed edges. Light browning and foxing, fold lines, three horizontal and one vertical, a few creases and tiny fold-overs along edges. A notably well-preserved copy. $1,500. * In 1820 Clark burned down a barn. There was no loss of life, but he was tried for a capital crime, found guilty and sentenced to death. The jury recommended commutation to no avail. He was sixteen years of age when he committed the crime, seventeen when executed. His case helped to advance a successful movement to reduce the number of capital crimes. By 1852 only murder remained a capital offense. Cohen lists this item but notes that he didn't handle a copy; his entry is based on a dealer's catalogue. Cohen also notes another broadside, again unseen, a 16-page pamphlet at Harvard Law School, and a 63-page report of the trial, at Yale Law School. Curiously, there is nothing for Clark in McDade, which is surprising given the contemporary and long-term importance of the case. These omissions in McDade suggest the rarity of these four accounts. OCLC locates 10 copies of the broadside.

  • Dam Sign.Indd
    CONSTRUCTION INFORMATION ON THE GLEN D. PALMER DAM FISH LADDER NORTH END OF DAM) The Fish Ladder In Phase I of the project the dam spillway was modifi ed from a roller type to a four-step confi guration and added the Denil fi sh ladder adjacent to the dam’s north abutment to restore fi sh passage at the dam. The Denil style fi sh ladder, as seen in the picture to the left, consists of a con- FOX RIVER crete chute with specialized aluminum baffl es. These unique baffl es located inside the Denil fi sh ladder dissipate enough energy to allow a variety of fi sh that live in the Fox River to burst between the four segments of the fi shway. After each segment, the fi sh have an opportunity to rest before continuing to the next segment of the “ladder.” DAM The Denil fi shway is the fi rst of its kind in Illinois. To date, no other Denil style ladders have been constructed on larger rivers for reconnection purposes. This fi shway, design by HDR/Fishpro of Springfi eld, Illinois, provides native fi sh species in the Fox River an opportunity to move between the tail water below Yorkville Dam and the upper pool upstream of the dam, while leaving the el- evated pool intact. This is a major step in continuing efforts to reconnect ecologically fragmented sections of the Fox River. Opening the Denil fi shway at the Yorkville dam reconnects 41 miles of the Fox River for fi sh migration. The Denil fi sh ladder is capable of drawing water from a lower depth in the pool, reducing stagna- tion in the pool and providing water supply to the north shore of the river during low-fl ow condi- tions.
