Seating Assignments

Temple Square


What was the seating arrangement in the old Tabernacle and for the first few years of the new Tabernacle?

            a.      Priesthood only
            b.      Leaders of Priesthood and auxiliaries only
            c.       Women on one side and men on the other
            d.      Wards assigned to sections of the Tabernacle

Yesterday’s answer:

True


In preparing the manuscript for publication, Joseph Smith had Oliver Cowdery and other scribes make a copy of the original—the printer’s manuscript—to take to the Grandin printing shop. This second manuscript was not produced all at once but as the printer needed copy. About three-fourths of the way through, the scribes apparently fell behind in their copy work, so for about 15% of the text (Hel. 13—Morm. 9) they let the printer use the original manuscript to set the type for the 1830 edition. Nonetheless, the printer’s manuscript was completed.
