85 years ago today - Apr 1, 1936

[David O. McKay]
In the evening Brother M[atthias]. F. Cowley called at our home, and asked me to give to President [Heber J.] Grant for him a written confession and plea for forgiveness. [Cowley had been dropped from the Quorum of Twelve for continued promption of plural marriage.]

[David O. McKay, Diary, as quoted in Minutes of the Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1835-1951, Electronic Edition, 2015, Appendix 8: The Reinstatements of Matthias F. Cowley and John W. Taylor]
