THE SAN DIEGO UNION, California, Sept. 11, 1877
* John Taylor succeeds Brigham Young
* Mormons - Mormonism president
The front page has: "Salt Lake" "John Taylor Succeeds Brigham" with the account noting in part: "...John Taylor, Senior Apostle, and acting President of the Twelve, was unanimously sustained in that position...".
Four pages, a bit fragile but in nice condition.
wikipedia notes: Following Brigham Young's death in 1877, the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles governed the church, with John Taylor as the quorum's president.
