How many of you have read the book or watched the movie - "The Firm"?


I was looking at the original scans of D&C 104 where Joseph & his cronies are dividing up the goods after ending the United Order. Throughout the entire section the organization is referred to as "The Firm".

How fitting.

Yes, great story that one. "Firm" seemed to earn its 4 letter word status in that movie. Seemed to be all seeing, all knowing, all controlling. I think there is a connotation to that word that firms love to project. Probably made Jo feel oh so powerful.

Does that make William Law the original Tom Cruise character?

Nice.

Take your pick:

Cowderey
Whitney
Harris
Partridge
Bennett
Whitmer
(almost Rigdon)

Once people got to know Joe well enough, they almost all left.
