"Church Section" in Deseret News calls record of 1826 hearing/trial "spurious."
“Church Section,” Deseret News, May 11, 1946, 6
. . . the alleged find is no discovery at all, for the purported record has been included in other books . . . after all her [Fawn Brodie] puffing and promise the author produces no court record at all, though persistently calling it such. . . . This alleged record is obviously spurious. . . . The really vital things which a true record must contain are not there, though there is a lot of surplus verbiage set out in an impossible order which the court was not required to keep.
This record could not possibly have been made at the time as the case proceeded. It is patently a fabrication of unknown authorship and never in the court records at all.
