There were seventy five persons present including the
Twelve and the twenty who went with him to Springfield
to his trial at the United States Circuit Court

The following day was one of much
satisfaction in consequence of Orson Pratt's return to
the quorum of the Twelve

We met at Brigham Young's
and the First Presidency and the Twelve conversed
over the subject. Orson had humbled himself
for opposing Joseph and the brethren of his own
quorum and desired very much to return to his

After our counselling together we
assembled at the River and Joseph went down into

them and ordained Orson to the Apostleship and
his former standing amongst us. This caused
our hearts to rejoice

Elder Amasa Lyman who
had been appointed in his stead as a member of
the quorum of the Twelve was taken into the First
Presidency which left the place again vacant for
Orson Pratt.
