Smith writes to Brigham Young, " If you in your wisdom should think it best to sell the same [the Nauvoo Temple] for to help the poor in the present emergency, we frankly concur notwithstanding we feel opposed to a Methodist Congregation listening to a Mob Priest in that holly place" The church was considering selling the Nauvoo and Kirtland temples to pay its debts.
