| |

| − | The issue of the ''Deseret News'' cited has a talk from Heber C. Kimball that addresses polygamy, but not Brigham Young.{{ref|hck.1}}

| − | :The principle of plurality of wives never will be done away, although some sisters have had revelations that, when this time passes away and they go through the veil, every woman will have a husband to herself.

| − | | |
| − | Heber clearly teaches that the ''principle'' "will never be done away," but then readily admits that some of the sisters (who are obviously not fond of the practice) have been reassured that the requirement that ''they'' practice it has been revealed to them to be necessary only for this life.
