00:00Joe Smith thinks he's above the law.
00:06It's our duty to see that the law is obeyed.
00:11By whatever means we find necessary.
00:22Brigham, what is it?
00:24Joseph and I are dead.
00:27What will we do?
00:30Joseph never discussed who should lead the saints.
00:33Men seek for power. The church needs a leader.
00:36I'm afraid of who it might be.
00:38Joseph is gone. Hiram, gone.
00:41As the last surviving member of the first presidency, it falls on me.
00:47Sidney, I don't care who leads the church.
00:50But it won't be you unless God speaks it.
00:54What about my family?
00:56Emma, nothing has changed.
00:58Everything has changed.
01:00Come on, Flash, don't miss him.
01:02I'm not sure what happens next.
01:04There is unrest. You assume that because Joseph is gone, our enemies will leave us alone.
01:09They are too powerful.
01:18The Mormons have called this a war.
01:22We will not be driven from our homes again.
01:25We will preach or fight, whichever is required.
01:28You will not fail.
01:30You see them on top of the temple.
01:32Hurrah for Israel!
01:36There is talk of four or five different successors.
01:40And so you plot.
01:42He conferred upon our heads.
01:44All the keys before he was taken away.
01:46This child will manage the flock for a season.
01:49We have all done the best we could without Joseph.
01:53We will now have to walk by faith, not by sight.
