[Salt Lake Stake] President [Nephi L.] Morris said that President Francis M. Lyman, of the Council of apostles, had instructed the stake presidency that Elder Matthias F. Cowley, of the Seventeenth Ward, was not to be permitted to officiate in any of the functions of the priesthood, as he had been deprived of all his rights in the church, except those belonging to a mere member. President Morris cautioned the brethren to observe scrupulously the requirements made by President Lyman.

[Cowley had been discplined for promoting post-manifesto plural marriages]
