Amalickiah had his servants slay the king of the Lamanites, and he falsely accused the king’s servants of the treachery. It is interesting that when those falsely accused servants of the king’s servants ran, they escaped to the lands of the Nephites, specifically to Jershon. Why did they there, of all places? They must have had friends there. At least the initial inhabitants of Jershon had been the people of Ammon. It also may be that the underlying records of the king’s murder were partially furnished by these servants.
