Mormon Interest: Joseph Smith murdered! Front page story of a chilling account of his final minutes from an eye witness who testified in court. An incredible synopsis of testimonial copy: "....when the life of the Prophet was being taken, a light so strong, so bright blazed between him and the corpse that he and the four men who shot him were struck with terror and consternation. Their muskets fell from their hands and they stood like marble, not having the power to move a single limb. This light was something like a flash of lightning and was so much brighter than the day that, after it had passed it left a slight darkness like twilight..." Extremely rare 1845 newspaper account with only 3 known copies to exist in the world. This is one of those three HISTORIC copies (Presale est-$100-$250.00)
