175 years ago today - Sep 3, 1837

Book of Mormon witness Martin Harris, discontented after the collapse of the Kirtland Anti-Banking Society, is dropped from the Kirtland High Council. He and his family remain in Kirtland when most Saints emigrated to Missouri or Nauvoo. He later says: "I never did leave the Church, the Church left me." Also on this day Apostles Luke S. Johnson, Lyman Johnson, and John F. Boynton are disfellowshipped by the Kirtland High Council.
