Scope and Contents

Diary, 12 July 1898: "Meeting of Twelve at Temple. Pres. [Lorenzo] Snow open with stormy reference to our financial condition. Others followed in same line. Pres. [George Q.] Cannon is feeble but he will not trust the Twelve in financial matters.... While we all believe in the integrity of Pres. George Q. Cannon, still we believe that he has nearly ruined the credit of the Church with schemes which have failed, and the responsibility rests upon Pres. Woodruff, poor man, his faith is unbounded in Bro. Cannon, but we now find ourselves with a very aged man at the head and a badly paralyzed man to manage all his public affairs."
