Consequently, how many bodyguards did Joseph Smith have?

Did Porter Rockwell cut his hair?
Cut not thy hair and no bullet or blade can harm thee.†Rockwell did not cut his hair until 1855. When he did it was to provide the widow of the Prophet's brother, Don Carlos Smith, with a wig to replace her hair lost from typhoid fever. Another time a young gunslinger got the drop on Rockwell.
