Footnotes
In 2020, Joseph Smith Papers staff carefully examined and compared this JS document with a Wilkinson autograph album and a Sidney Rigdon poem allegedly coming from the album, which are both at the Church History Library in Salt Lake City. While the album contained no physical evidence of leaf removal, distinct matching characteristics of the milled paper confirmed the JS document and Rigdon poem were at one time either part of the album or another Wilkinson autograph album produced by the same manufacturer. (See Susan C. Wilkinson Autograph Album, CHL; and Sidney Rigdon, Poem, 2 Mar. 1840, CHL.)
