371 Q–State the time? A–The time it was taught to me in Nauvoo it was not supposed to be practiced as a principle,—that is publicly like our proceedings in the temple for the dead. It was not taught or practiced openly but it was given to me and I understood it as a crude principle that would be fully and openly revealed to the church when the proper time came for it to be revealed.
