| | The Prophet Joseph Smith III |
 | | This painting shows Joseph at about forty-eight years of age, as he appeared while he lived at Piano, Illinois, and was president of the Church and editor of the Saints’ Herald and other Church publications. |
 | | I turned to President Smith and said: “Have you ever seen, in fact, the fair scene thus presented to you in vision?” We were in the editorial room in the southwest corner of the upper floor of the old Herald Office building in Lamoni, Iowa. |
 | | While Young Joseph was being directed by visions, the saints in independent Restoration branches were being informed by dreams, visions, prophecies, and tongues that he would become their prophet. |
