Hyrum Smith wrote a letter to the Saints living in Kirtland counseling them to come to Nauvoo. His letter also contained the following revelation: "There shall not be a general assembly for a general conference assembled together until the House of the Lord [in Nauvoo] and baptismal font shall be finished, and if we are not diligent the church shall be rejected and their dead also, 'saith the Lord.'"
