180 years ago today - Jul 26, 1838

The First Presidency, high council, and bishops court meet at Far West to dispose of Church lands. It is decided that all Church lands will be put into the hands of the bishops. It is also decided that the traveling expenses of the First Presidency will be defrayed, and that the Church will use its influence to stop the selling of liquor in Far West.
