The article accuses Parrish of stealing money from the Kirtland Safety Society Anti-Banking Company. There's a citation to the Journal of Discourses given below, which accuses him of running a swindle. But the JoD is hardly a non-biased source, and that account is no better than hearsay. If he had really done such a thing, then why wasn't he prosecuted or sued, and if he was, why doesn't the article mention it? Is there any evidence that he had done such a thing, beyond Elder George A. Smith's say-so? 143.166.255.58 (talk) 10:39, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
