Reported just before the temple was completed (to a degree that the general conference could be held within its walls). This is a highly positive and colorful article, original to the time when one looked forward, rather than backward, to the dedication of this famous structure.
The list of the twelve apostles, with their nicknames, is uncommon in non-Mormon articles of this time . . .
