'''Commentary'''
*Driven by his passion to indict Brigham Young in the Mountain Meadows massacre, Bagley &mdash; a professional historian &mdash; seriously distorts the historical record, changing the clear reading in Huntington's handwritten journal in an attempt to manufacture evidence.
* Huggins wishes it to appear that Joseph Smith introduced angelic messengers late in the telling of his tale of obtaining the Book of Mormon; he therefore excludes mention of the angel to hide its existence.
