Yesterday’s answer:
a. The Evening and Morning Star
This
periodical was printed in Missouri from June 1832 until July 1833, when the Church’s
press there was destroyed. The paper was subsequently printed in Kirtland from
December 1833 until about September 1834. Issues that had originally been
printed in Missouri were reprinted in Kirtland in January 1835. Many of Joseph
Smith’s writings and the revelations given to him were printed in the paper,
which helped the Saints to better understand the doctrines of the Church and
their individual responsibilities. Some revelations, in fact, were printed in
this periodical but were not included in the first edition of the Doctrine and
Covenants.
