Summary

Lucius Nelson Scovil joined the LDS Church in 1837 in Kirtland, Ohio, and one month later left on the first of many missions for the church. On his way home he met the Prophet Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon who alerted him to mob violence against the Saints in Ohio.

When he arrived home the Saints were fleeing, and few families had the means to transport their goods to the Ohio River about 100 miles away.
