William Law and the Nauvoo Expositor publish many things meant to harm Joseph Smith and the Church, call for Nauvoo city charter to be revoked, after lengthy deliberation city council resolves to destroy press, Sheriff John P. Greene carries out order with overabundance of volunteers, Law and other proprietors later set fire to building, citizens extinguish fire, arrest warrants are issued to Joseph & Hyrum for rioting in streets and destruction of press, for first two warrants Joseph is able to stand trial before friendly judge, line of aggression is set up by enemies of the Church between Carthage and Nauvoo, Nauvoo placed under lockdown, Governor Ford arrives in Carthage despite invitations to come to Nauvoo, 3rd arrest warrant is issued with no recourse to stand before friendly judge, Joseph immediately sends for remaining ten of twelve out on political missions, Joseph and Hyrum temporarily go across river to Iowa, then after encouragement from friends and Emma it is resolved for he and Hyrum to submit to warrant and go to Carthage despite Joseph's predictions, Joseph and Hyrum say goodbye to families, Joseph tells Emma to write out a blessing that he will then sign, Joseph makes statements on his way to Carthage early in the morning that foreshadow his death...



Song today is The Unknown Grave, by David Hyrum Smith - Joseph and Emma's (at this time unborn) son.
