They claim that alterations in a different handwriting to the stolen manuscript would have been readily apparent. Some suggest that the writing of the 116 pages served as an “apprenticeship” to allow Joseph to improve his writing skills.<br />

Obviously, the plates never sat exposed in plain view, and these artistic interpretations originate purely in the mind of the artist. Some accounts indicate that the plates sat on a table covered with a cloth "in plain view," with Emma indicating that she actually moved them around in order to perform her household chores.<ref>Interview of Emma Smith by her son Joseph Smith III, "Interview with Joseph Smith III, 1879," {{EarlyMormonDocs| vol=1|start=541|end=542 }}</ref><br />
