A Young Folks' History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

A Young Folks' History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is by Nephi Anderson. A note to parents and teachers says a study of the history of the Church will implant in our boys and girls a love for its heroes, a loyalty to its principles, and an appreciation of its achievements. The text says that when Joseph was ten years old they all moved from Vermont to Palmyra, in the western part of the state of New York.

Joseph rises to his feet and speaks in a voice of thunder, saying "Silence! ye fiends of the infernal pit! In the name of Jesus Christ I rebuke you, and command you to be still." General Clark tried hard to find some law by which he could have Joseph tried by an army court, but failed in this and handed the prisoners over to the civil authorities. The chapter headed PRESIDENCY OF JOSEPH F. SMITH says the First Presidency of the Church was reorganized for the sixth time October 17, 1901, and that Joseph F. Smith was chosen president.
