^Forter, "John Shar" in Encyclopedia of LDS Church History, p. 1096, states of Sharp "He also served the Church as an assistant trustee-in-trust." Foster does not state in this citation when Sharp was made assistant trustee-in-trust, nor does he make anhy mention to the Council of 50. The title trustee-in-trust relates to the legal organization of the Church. The article on Trustee-in-trust on page 1259 of the Encyclopedia of Latter-day Saint History states that "With the exception of three brief periods" the Trustee-in-trust has always been the president of the Church since the formation of the office in 1841. It does not explain at all the position of assistant trustee-in-trust.
