"From 1837 to 1838 and again from 1839 to 1841, Vilate Murray Kimball wrote often to her husband, Elder Heber C. Kimball of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, while he traveled in Great Britain to preach the gospel....Because Joseph Smith almost never used notes when he preached, we have to rely on the notes that others took to recover many of his remarks. Thus, Vilate’s letters, along with the transcriptions of others, have become a valuable source of many of Joseph’s doctrinal teachings and have made Vilate an important chronicler of Church history."
