Relationship With Joseph Smith, Jr.
The relationship between William and Joseph was, at times, quite rocky. William is believed to have physically fought with or attempted to fight with his brother Joseph on more than one occasion, and it is said that at the time Joseph died, he was still suffering the effects of a beating he had received from William some time earlier. A fist fight was narrowly averted between the two on October 29, 1835 in Kirtland.
