Alma 51:7

And it came to pass that this matter of their contention

was settled by the voice of the people.

And it came to pass that the voice of the people came in favor of the freemen,

and Pahoran retained the judgment-seat,

which caused much rejoicing among the brethren of Pahoran

and also many of the people of liberty,

who also put the king-men to silence,

that they durst not oppose

but were obliged to maintain the cause of freedom.

Alma 51:13

And it came to pass that

when the men who were called king-men had heard

that the Lamanites were coming down to battle against them,

they were glad in their hearts;

and they refused to take up arms,

for they were so wroth with the chief judge,

and also with the people of liberty,

that they would not take up arms to defend their country.
