A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Hearthom

by George Reynolds

HEARTHOM. A king of the Jaredites; he was the son of Lib, whom he succeeded. When he had reigned twenty-four years the kingdom was wrested from him, and he was held in captivity by the successful party all the remainder of his life. Only one of his sons is mentioned, whose name was Heth. Of Hearthom's private character the record is silent.
