[2]B. H. Roberts published two books in 1900—The Missouri Persecutions and The Rise and Fall of Nauvoo. After he was appointed assistant church historian in 1902, he began publishing a seven-volume documentary history of the church. Having written about violence in Missouri and Nauvoo, it seems likely that he had sections 123 and 124 of the Doctrine and Covenants (1876 edition) on his mind and might have been thinking of the “traitors” who stirred up attacks on the Latter-day Saints in those places. (Bitton, “B. H. Roberts as Historian,” 26.)
