170 years ago today - Jun 20, 1847

[Hosea Stout]
At meeting today [Apostle Orson] Hyde preached his celebrated bogus sermon, denouncing all bogus makers, counterfeiters thieves &c & commanding all such & all who knew of any such to come forth with and tell him & also absolved them from all former acts and covenants to keep secrets.

This made quite a stir & caused some to "confess their sins"
