[Apostle Marriner W. Merrill Diary] Thursday. I attended our Quorum meeting at 10 a. m. The First Presidency met with us. Partook of the sacrament, bread and wine, at 1 p. m. when the Presidency withdrew. Then the decision of Apostle B. Young, which he made some months ago in relation to myself and others, with which myself and family were not satisfied, was discussed by President Snow, B. Young, myself, F. M. Lyman, H. J. Grant, J. H. Smith, George Teasdale, and the trend of the discussion was that the said decision was right and my family was wrong in sending their protest to the First Presidency. (3)
