[Gold Plates] "They appeared to be of gold, about six by nine inches in size, about as thick as parchment, a great many in number, and bound together like the leaves of a book by massive rings passing through the back edges. The engravings upon them were very plain and of very curious appearance". David Whitmer, Kansas City Daily Journal, (Kansas City, MO), 5 June 1881
