Welcome back to part two with Dr. Derek Sainsbury, Doctrine and Covenants 98 through 101.

Some people might say, well, why didn't they go to the police or the law?

They were in the mob.

I was reading Bruce Van Orden.

I think you have a little bit of this, too, Derek.

He says Samuel Weston, a justice of the peace,

grabbed a club to ward off the Mormon defenders.

Or how about the sitting lieutenant governor?

Lillburn Boggs, who says, exclaims with satisfaction,

Mormons are the common enemies of mankind and ought to be destroyed.

You know what our Jackson County boys can do,

and you must leave the country.

The lieutenant governor.

Yeah.

And if you walk around Independence Square,

you see monuments to different wars and skirmishes,

and you see Littleburn W. Boggs on some of those in different military ranks as he rises in rank.

Now, I thought I heard that Governor Boggs had employed Mary Rollins as a babysitter a couple of times.

Yes, in fact, he tries to convince her to leave Sidney Gilbert and I'll adopt you.

You're too good for this group of people. She's a very impressive, young lady.

Derek, move us into 98 here.

What happens is that three days later, they have another meeting.
