I wrote a paper on what keys are. I discuss every reference to keys in the scriptures and in the speeches of Joseph Smith, and some quotes from contemporary authors. This paper also deals with the Mormon succession crisis, and who, if anybody, has inherited the right to run the modern corporation. Power in the Priesthood.

Hey John. I was hoping to read more of the info you mentioned on pg 49where it says, “(see p. 113, endnote 16 & Assumption #7, chap. 6) Succession_Crisis.pdf)” Thanks.

Good point. I did a terrible job of explaining this. I was quoting from a 17-page document, written by Val Brinkerhoff. You can find the entire document at http://www.7witnesses.com/uploads/3/8/9/3/38938293/succession_crisis.pdf.
The title of this document is “Succession Crisis: Legitimate Heir or Usurper? Who Should Lead & Why or How Brigham Young Took Power”? But, this document is only the first 15 pages of Chapter 4 of a book he wrote called “The Secret Chamber”
Val Brinkerhoff, 2/16/2020. It’s available in paperback for $11.95 at Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Chamber-Spiritual-Wifery-Doctrine/dp/1090268394/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=val+brinkerhoff&qid=1658452393&sprefix=val+brin%2Caps%2C84&sr=8-1
I hope this helps you and others.
