[Abraham H. Cannon Journal] At a mtg. in Centerville, several Apostles and all of the First Council of 70 were present and the discussion of plural marriage came up. "Bros Thomas Grover testified to having heard the revelation on celestial marriage read by Hyrum Smith in the high council previous to the death of the Prophet. All of the council present excepting three accepted the doctrine, and those three soon afterwards apostatized. Bro. Nobles testified to having performed the first ceremony in celestial marriage in this generation, he sealing his wife's sister to the Prophet Joseph."
