Mormon History, March 1846

Times and Seasons ceases publication in Nauvoo. Began publication in 1839. The printing office ―was almost the last of the city‘s institutions to be closed down. Its closure stanched the outward flow of print-disseminated news, encouragement, and instructions from the Church‘s newspaper and broadside proclamations. (From 1846 through 1848 (approx. three years) the Church had no press upon which to communicate with its members.)
