Prophet's scribes
The Prophet Joseph Smith wrote of having kept "several good, faithful and efficient clerks in constant employ. They have accompanied me everywhere and carefully kept my history, and they have written down what I have done, where I have been and what I have said."
One of those clerks was 31-year-old William Clayton, the subject of the Church History Symposium presentation by James B. Allen, former assistant church historian, retired BYU history professor and Brother Clayton's biographer (Trials of Discipleship: The Story of William Clayton, a Mormon).
