Joseph Smith Jr. publicly denounces the unauthorized publication by Udney H. Jacobs's work "The Peace Maker" (supportive of the doctine of polygamy as God's will). Joseph stated "There was a book printed at my office, a short time since, written by Udney H. Jacobs, on marriage, without my knowledge; and had I been apprised of it, I should not have printed it; not that I am opposed to any man enjoying his privileges; but I do not wish to have my name associated with the authors, in such an unmeaning rigmarole of nonsence, folly, and trash"
