5 Joseph Smith s Vision americainclass.org 5
6 Smith s Revelation Just at this moment of great alarm, I saw a pillar of light exactly over my head, above the brightness of the sun, which descended gradually until it fell upon me...i saw two personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name, and said, pointing to the other THIS IS MY BELOVED SON, HEAR HIM! americainclass.org 6

13 Polygamy Revelation And again, as pertaining to the law of the priesthood if any man espouse a virgin, and desire to espouse another, and the first give her consent, and if he espouse the second, and they are virgins, and have vowed to no other man, then is he justified; he cannot commit adultery for they are given unto him; for he cannot commit adultery with that that belongeth unto him and to no one else. And if he have ten virgins given unto him by this law, he cannot commit adultery, for they belong to him, and they are given unto him; therefore is he justified. Mormon Doctrine and Covenants, 132:61-62 americainclass.org 13
14 Sidney Rigdon: We Will Bear it No More For from this hour, we will bear it no more, our rights shall no more be trampled on with impunity. The man or the set of men, who attempts it, does it at the expense of their lives. And that mob that comes on us to disturb us; it shall be between us and them a war of extermination; for we will follow them till the last drop of their blood is spilled, or else they will have to exterminate us. Sidney Rigdon, July 4, 1838 americainclass.org 14
15 Lilburn Boggs: The Mormons Must Be Exterminated The Mormons must be treated as enemies, and must be exterminated or driven from the state if necessary for the public peace--their outrages are beyond all description. Governor Lilburn Boggs, October 27, 1838 americainclass.org 15

18 John Bennett: The Mormon Conspiracy [There is] a vast and deep laid scheme, upon their part, for conquering the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and Missouri, and of erecting upon the ruin of their present governments a despotic military and religious empire, the head of which, as emperor and pope, was to be Joseph Smith.

27 Handcart Account Our old and infirm people began to droop, and they no sooner lost spirit and courage than death s stamp could be traced upon their features...at first the deaths occurred slowly and irregularly, but in a few days at more frequent intervals, until we soon thought it unusual to leave a campground without burying one or more persons...many a father pulled his cart, with his little children on it, until the day preceding his death. I have seen some pull their carts in the morning, give out during the day, and die before next morning.... We traveled on in misery and sorrow day after day.

34 Washington Resisted The fact is, these people repudiate the authority of the United States in this country, and are in open rebellion against the general government We are by no means sure that we would be permitted to leave, for it is boldly asserted that we would not get away alive. David Burr, Surveyor General of Utah, 1857 americainclass.org 34

37 We ll Fight for God and Liberty What sound is that which now we hear Re-echoing from the plains! The troops, they say, are drawing near With all their wagon trains.
