During the exodus period (1846 to 1852), two movements threatened to challenge Brigham Young's leadership of the Church and to attract defectors from the ranks. This article describes the threat of "Lamanism" or "Indian Cutlerism" propounded by Alpheus Cutler and the appeals of Lyman Wight and George Miller of the Saints to gather to Texas. Although neither movement attracted very many adherents, they were symptomatic of the estimated 2,132 who quit the Church while at the Missouri River between 1847 and 1852.
