Yesterday’s answer:
(D) The Surgeon’s medicine
In a letter from Brigham Young to the Mormon Battalion dated
August 19, 1846, Brigham Young writes:. . . If you are sick, live by faith, and let the surgeon’s medicine alone if you want to live, using only such herbs and mild foods as are at your disposal.
This counsel would make sense since it was the surgeon’s medicine that killed Alvin Smith.
