(Parley P. Pratt) Pratt exchanged strong words in the Nauvoo Temple with his brother Orson over Parley's accusations that Orson's wife Sarah was "ruining and breaking up his family." Orson, expelled from the temple, complained to Brigham Young about Parley's alleged immorality: "If he feels at liberty to go into the city of New York or elsewhere and seduce girls or females and sleep and have connexion [sic] with them contrary to the law of God, and the sacred counsels of his brethren, it is something that does not concern me."
