3 Nephi 3:1

And now it came to pass that

in the sixteenth year from the coming of Christ,

Lachoneus, the governor of the land, received an epistle

from the leader and the governor of this band of robbers;

and these were the words which were written, saying:



3 Nephi 3:9

And behold, I am Giddianhi;

and I am the governor of this the secret society of Gadianton;

which society and the works thereof I know to be good;

and they are of ancient date

and they have been handed down unto us.



3 Nephi 3:12

Now behold, this Lachoneus, the governor, was a just man,

and could not be frightened by the demands and the threatenings of a robber;

therefore he did not hearken to the epistle of Giddianhi, the governor of the robbers,

but he did cause that his people should cry unto the Lord

for strength against the time that the robbers should come down against them.
