Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 98: September 17, 1936 It was in September, 1827, as many of our readers know, that the Angel Moroni delivered into the hands of the youthful Joseph Smith on the Hill Cumorah in the western part of the State of New York a set of gold plates on which was inscribed in ancient characters the religious history of an extinct people who had lived in the Americas for more than years. The writings on some of these plates were translated by Joseph by the gift and power of God. This translation was printed in book form, coming from the press in March, 1830, and constituted a volume known as the Book of Mormon. This volume, accordingly, is the most wonderful book in print today. There is no other in the coming forth of which God and His angels have been so directly active. The Angel Moroni appeared to Joseph several times in the interests of this book and the work the Prophet was called to do. In this connection we refer our readers to the testimony of the three and of the eight witnesses, respectively, as printed in the introduction to the Book of Mormon.
