How did Lachoneus respond to Giddianhi’s threats?

Thomas R. Valletta

“Though there is no direct response by Lachoneus to Giddianhi that would reveal a contrast in personalities, we are given part of Lachoneus’s proclamation to his people. He calls on them to gather into one central location with their families and enough substance for seven years, and he says they must repent or they will ‘in nowise be delivered out of the hands of those Gadianton robbers’ (3 Ne. 3:15). His plan is successful. Giddianhi is slain, and the robbers are eventually defeated” (Rust, Feasting on the Word, 162).
