In June 1844 "when Joseph went to Carthage to deliver himself up ... two or three days previous to his assassination, he said: 'I am going like a lamb to the slaughter; but I am calm as a summer's morning; I have a conscience void of offense towards God, and towards all men' " (D&C 135:4). Here he bids farewell to his family.
