Once the crisis subdued and William Clayton dug up as documents again they might as well have remained buried they remain restricted for over 175 years. It wasnt until 2014. The lds church announced they were be making them available for the first time in published form. And dont forget to tell all of you that whenever there is a document or series of documents that are kept hidden and secret lots of legends and myths crop up around them.

Talk about stuff that i am equally eager to talk about with you.
