L. John Nuttall writes in his diary: "We have information that the U.S. Dist. Arty., Marshall, and Courts purpose arresting the Presidency, Twelve, Presidents of Stakes, Bishops, and leading men generally, and if they do not acknowledge to having put away their plural wives, they will be considered as living in unlawful cohabitation and be punished accordingly."
