Sunday the 20th
We held council meeting in the Blithers Branch and one of the elders had become dissatisfied and was sent for to give his reasons for it he sad that Brigham contradicted Joseph in saying that Adam was the father of Jesus Christ and Joseph sayed he was not and he said he could prove that Brigham Young taught fals doctrin we told him to repent and forsake that spirit that he was trying to destroy him. I spoke to the Saints in the afternoon and in the evening.
