105 years ago today - Oct 6, 1912

The first written statement by Lorin C. Woolley about the circumstances of John Taylor's 1886 revelation at the home of his father John W. Woolley. This statement makes no reference to Lorin Woolley's later claim that John Taylor ordained men in 1886 to continue plural marriage no matter what the church's official position might be. However, since 1904 diaries have mentioned such claims, though without mentioning 1886 or Woolley.
