[Heber J. Grant]

Francis M. Lyman, regretted that every word that Brother Brigham had said could not have been taken down and recorded. Stated that he never allowed a wife or child to see anything that he recorded in his journal, felt that it was sacred. Had purchased a safe in which he kept his journals. Had never recorded anything in his journals about any of his brethren that he would have the least objection to their reading. At the same time he felt that our journals should be held sacred.
