I am not a witness, but I will dare to say 1874. It was this date that they believed and taught Jesus’ invisible returned to earth to set up his new Kingdom.
That date, was dropped and replaced later with the new date of 1914 for Jesus’ invisible return to earth.
Take care,

I seem to remember there was scandal before Maria and Chas split up,something about his claim that he touched sisters like a jelly fish?
(is my memory playing tricks that sounds silly?)

Noah's ark being built with substandard materials.
Turns out Noah was pocketing some of the budget himself.
(Sorry, it just isn't a badboy thread without mention of Noah).

Aside from doctrinal things I would say the Miracle Wheat?

Wobble-
he touched sisters like a jelly fish? I think it was that he said that he flitted about like a butterfly, touching this one and that one. I could be mistaken.

The WT wasn't around in 1873-1874, so I will have to go with the embarassment of 1881 when Russell had to change his view dramatically just months apart on whether his flock would be resurrected into spirit bodies that spring.
That was long before the marriage troubles and the miracle wheat scandals.
