Yesterday’s answer:
A.
The original
rough draft to the Articles and Covenant of the Church
In 1959 Virginia Ryder Watters,
great-great-granddaughter of Symonds Ryder, donated an original rough draft of
the Articles and Covenants [Sections 20 and 22 of the Doctrine and Covenants]
to the Historical Department via a Latter-day Saint high school student her
husband knew. The document is titled “A commandment from God unto Oliver how he
should build up his Church & the manner thereof.” It concludes “A true copy
of the Articles of the Church of Christ. O.C. [Oliver Cowdery]” (“Historical,”
287, 290).
