Gadianton Growth

Part of: Gadianton Period

• The following year, Nephite dissenters, now merged with the Lamanites, initiate guerilla attacks on the Nephites. 
• These guerillas assume the identity of Gadianton robbers, and pose a large problem for the Nephites. 
• Nephite militias are sent into the jungle several times and they successfully disperse the Gadianton forces. 
• Even so, the Gadianton forces continue to grow and they continue to initiate battles against the Nephites. 
• The Nephites’ morals again decay, and they show no sign of repentance.

• Previous: Nephite Moral Decay
• Next: Samuel the Lamanite
