The year 1844 was a pivotal and tragic time for Nauvoo, marked by rising tensions, internal betrayal & external political divisions. Early in the year, dissent grew within the Church, leading William Law and others to establish the Nauvoo Expositor, accusing Joseph Smith of corruption. When the Nauvoo City Council declared the press a public nuisance and ordered its destruction on June 10, anti-Mormon sentiment exploded. In response to growing threats, Joseph declared martial law and called out the Nauvoo Legion. Seeking to avoid greater conflict, he and Hyrum traveled to Carthage under Governor Thomas Ford’s promise of protection. However, that visit would turn our worlds upside down, and would jostle the snow globes of our realities in a way that took years if not decades for the flakes to settle.
