Summary: | 15 Nauvoo Relief Society Minute Book (Doc. 1.2), entries for 17 and 30 [31] March, 28 April, 27 May 1842, 13 August 1843; Sarah M. Kimball, Reminiscence, March 17, 1882 (Doc. 4.10); Sarah M. Kimball, "The Relief Society", Report of Relief Society Jubilee, March 17, 1892 (Doc. 4.28), all in I The First Fifty Years of Relief Society i , 43, 54-55, 59, 75-76, 115-16, 495, 597. Why did a member of the Nauvoo temple committee tell the women that their Relief Society "was raisd by the Lord to prepare us for the great blessings which are for us in the House of the Lord in the Temple"? The precious record that left Nauvoo in the care of Eliza Snow remained with her and eventually found its way - via succeeding Relief Society presidents Zina D. H. Young and Bathsheba W. Smith - into the Church Historian's Office.[11] Actually, in 1855 Eliza herself had lent the book to the Church Historian's Office so that some of Joseph Smith's addresses could be incorporated into the history of the Church being compiled at the time. Maureen had recently joined Leonard Arrington, the new Church Historian, as part of his research and writing team known as the History Division within the newly organized Church Historical Department, which replaced the old Church Historian's Office.[4] I heard Maureen speak and was fascinated that she had so much to say about Eliza R. Snow, whom I knew only as a writer of hymns. |
