Smith sent followers from his community in Kirtland, Ohio, to begin the settlement, but they were soon expelled by locals who were suspicious of their new religion and abolitionist sympathies. Seven years later, in January 1838, Smith fled to Missouri from Ohio to avoid a warrant for his arrest, and joined other Mormons in Far West, Caldwell County, which became the new Zion. The same prejudices recurred and the Mormons found themselves subject to attacks from non-Mormons, including attempts to prevent them from voting. Smith decided that it was now necessary for Mormons to defend themselves, which resulted in a short and sharp conflict known as the Mormon War. A covert Mormon paramilitary unit, the Danites, was formed both to police the church"s members and to exact revenge on non-Mormons. After the Missouri state militia was attacked at the Crooked River and angry rhetoric rose from both sides, Missouri governor Lilburn Boggs issued Executive Order No. 44, which called for Mormons to be "exterminated or driven from the State." Non-Mormons responded by attacking a Mormon settlement at Haun"s Mill, killing men and boys and firing on the women. Following this massacre, the state militia surrounded Far West and arrested Smith and other Mormon leaders. Smith was charged with treason, but was allowed to go and join the rest of his followers who were expelled from Missouri to Illinois, where they founded their next major settlement, Nauvoo. There, Smith would be murdered and his church would split into several factions, with Brigham Young leading the movement"s largest group to Utah"--Jacket. 001377200 61020 $$aChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints$$xHistory$$y19th century. 001377200 61027 $$aChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.$$2fast 001377200 648_7 $$a1800-1899$$2fast 001377200 650_0 $$aMormon Church$$zMissouri$$xHistory. 001377200 650_7 $$aMormon Church.$$2fast 001377200 651_0 $$aMissouri$$xChurch history$$y19th century. 001377200 651_7 $$aMissouri. 001377200 655_7 $$aChurch history.$$2fast 001377200 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast 001377200 77608 $$iOnline version:$$aKinney, Brandon G.$$tMormon War.$$dYardley, Pa. : Westholme, ©2011$$z9781594165344$$w(OCoLC)829027803 001377200 85200 $$bgen$$hBX8611$$i.K546 2011 001377200 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1377200$$pGLOBAL_SET 001377200 980__ $$aBIB 001377200 980__ $$aBOOK
