180 years ago today - Dec 19, 1835

[Joseph Smith] I have had many sollam /solemn/ feelings this day Concerning my Brothe[r] William [with whom he fought with a few days earlier] and have prayed in my heart to fervently that the Lord will not him /cast him/ off, but he may return to the God of Jacob and magnify his apostleship and calling. May this be his happy lot for the Lord of Glory's Sake. Amen.
