County of Salt Lake.}

Be it remembered that on this fifteenth day of June A.D. 1869, personally appeared before me, James Jack, a Notary Public in and for said county, David Fullmer, who was by me sworn in due form of law, and upon his oath saith; that on or about the twelfth fourth day of August A.D. 1843, while in meeting with the High Council (he being a member thereof) in Hyrum Smith’s brick office in the city of Nauvoo, county of Hancock, State of Illinois; Dunbar Wilson made inquiry in relation to the subject of a plurality of wives, as there were rumors afloat respecting it, and he was "satisfied there was something in those rumors, and he wanted to know what it was." Upon which, the said Hyrum Smith stepped across the road to his residence and soon returned, bringing with him a copy of the revelation on Celestial Marriage, given to Joseph Smith July twelfth, A.D. 1843, and read the same to the High Council and bore testimony to its truth. The said David Fullmer further saith that to the best of his memory and belief, the following named persons were present William Marks, Austin A. Cowles, Samuel Bent, <A. Butler> George W. Harris, Dunbar Wilson, William Huntington, Levi Jackman, Aaron Johnson, Thomas Grover, James Allred, and Leonard Sobey. And the said David Fullmer further saith, that William Marks, Austin A. Cowles, and Leonard Sobey were the only persons present who did not receive the revelation and testimony of Hyrum Smith and that all the others did receive it from the teaching and testimony of the said Hyrum Smith. And further that the copy of said Revelation on Celestial Marriage published in the Deseret News Extra of September 14th, A.D. 1852, is a true copy of the same.
