The Feathered Serpent, Part Two
Jonathan is one of the people that the prophet Nephi gathers to assist Jim Hawkins on his quest to rescue his daughter Melody. Jonathan, along with Jim, Zedekiah the elder, Naaman the tracker, Gidgiddonihah the warrior, and Lamachi the freshly converted Gadianton, set out on their mission to Jacobugath after the exodus of Zarahemla. They are joined by Jim's son Harry, who followed them out of fear of losing his father.

One morning, the group wakes up to find Naaman dead. Since Lamachi has been acting suspicious the whole trip, everyone suspects him to he the killer and decides to take him to be executed. Unbeknownst to anyone aside from Lamachi, it was actually Jonathan who killed Naaman, through the use of his poison-tipped blow darts.

When the group stops in Sidom, Lamachi confesses his innocence to Harry, talks him into setting him free, and sets a rendezvous with his father. Unfortunately, Jonathan and Gidgiddonihah find Lamachi first and knock him unconcious. Jonathan ops to kill Lamachi right then and there, but Gidgiddonihah tries to talk him out of it. Jonathan, while arguing with Gidgiddonihah, pulls out his blowpipe and shoots poison darts to sedate Gidgiddonihah and Jim. As Lamachi wakes, Jonathan scolds him for abandoning the Gadianton organization and declares his intentions to kill everyone in their band of adventurers. After Lamachi leaves, Jonathan goes to kill Jim. Jim, who was faking his seduction, gets up and flees from Jonathan. During the chase, Lamachi returns and kills Jonathan using Gidgiddonihah's blade.
