D&C 135:1

To seal the testimony of this book and the Book of Mormon, we announce the ^amartyrdom of Joseph Smith the Prophet, and Hyrum Smith the Patriarch. They were shot in Carthage jail, on the 27th of June, 1844, about five o'clock p.m., by an armed mob—painted black—of from 150 to 200 persons. ^bHyrum was shot first and fell calmly, exclaiming: I am a ^cdead man! Joseph leaped from the window, and was shot dead in the attempt, exclaiming: ^dO Lord my God! They were both shot after they were dead, in a brutal manner, and both received four balls.
