[William Clayton Journal] Joseph has said that if he and Hyrum were taken away Samuel H. Smith would be his successor.

    Once again Joseph Smith is talking confusion, telling about 5 different people at 5 different times and places, that 5 different men would lead the church in the event of his death.

    Only Sidney Rigdon, JS's 1st counselor in the church presidency (1833-1844) and then William Bickerton (elder then a 70: 1845-1852; apostle: 1852-1880) were JS's only true and legitimate successors. By their fruits (of 100% fidelity to the KJV Bible and the Book of Mormon) shall ye know them.
