But this was not until after I had told him what I understood… this was in 1841; the Revelation was given in 1843, but the doctrine was revealed before this." (Complete Discourses vol 5, pg 1101)-Soon-to-be Vice President of the United States, Schuyler Colfax, June 17, 1865 “... the revelations of the Doctrine and Covenants declared for monogamy, but that polygamy was a later revelation commanded by God to him [Brigham] and a few others, and permitted and advised to the rest of the church” (see, quoted in The Western Galaxy, Vol. I, p. 247)-Happiness Letter:https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/pap...
