150 years ago today - Sep 4, 1870

Edward Stephenson had been to Kirtland & Brought up old Father Martin Harris one of the 3 witnesses of the Book of Mormon. ... Then Martin Harris arose & bore testimony to the truth of the Book of Mormon. He is 88 years old & has finally Come up to Zion to lay his Body down with the Saints. He has been from the Church 33 years in a state of Apostacy & he is far behind the times yet he bears a strong testimony to the truth of the Book of Mormon.
