[William Clayton Writings] The squabbling [among the temple workers] broke out again, and on April 7 it was William Clayton who brought charges against the committee before the general conference of the church. He accused its members of partiality in distributing goods, money, and ``store pay'' (i.e., credit at Joseph Smith's store). .... Hyrum Smith, however, rose to the committee's defense, and in the end the conference sustained it in its work, thus exonerating it for a third time.
