description: BY answers several questions A.K. Thurber had about his status as acting president in Sevier: 1) Sevier Stake extends as far as Circleville, but not Panguitch; 2) it should still be called a stake in its semi-organized state, but Thurber does not have autonomy to call bishops; 3) new bishops are needed in Richfield and Monroe.
