As soon as the seed was in the ground he was called upon a mission to preach the gospel in Illinois, from which he did not return until January of 1840. Later they went to Nauvoo where they built a home and lived for a short time. While there Mr. Butler was one of the bodyguards for the Prophet Joseph Smith.
