In a signed affidavit, William Law affirmed that Hyrum Smith had read to him a revelation "so called" that authorized certain men to have more than one wife. Jane Law added her own statement, explaining that the purported revelation "set forth that those women who would not allow their husbands to have more wives than one should be under condemnation before God." Their statements were powerful because they were simple, straightforward, and true.
