Obviously, there is a market for remaking Emma. Just buy this guy's empty chair and make Emma one of Brigham's saints.
http://studiofitt.com/emptychair.htmlThe real story is probably one where Emma wouldn't allow Brigham in her home alone or to touch her.
"Loyal to her husband for seventeen years through all the vicissitudes that his mission had entailed, Emma Smith was unable, at the end, to make the sacrifice that the doctrine of plural marriage required."
"Unable to condone continuation of the practice of plural marriage or the leadership of Brigham Young, who supported it, and ambivalent about the proper line of succession to her husband, Emma made her first priority after her husband's death the preservation of an inheritance for her five living children."
