175 years ago today - Oct 8, 1843

Sidney Rigdon: Formally charged with apostasy at general conference 6 Oct. 1843 where Joseph Smith Jr. recommended that he be rejected as counselor, but re-sustained by conference 8 Oct. 1843 (Joseph Smith Jr. had already anointed William Law and Amasa M Lyman as counselors in his place)
