This chapter sorts through the polarized historiography and mixed contemporary accounts about Harris's visit to New York. In the process, it challenges the traditional narrative that Joseph knew from the beginning how he would translate and that he sent Martin Harris to Charles Anthon to fulfill an Old Testament prophecy. By building upon past scholarship and by taking a fresh look at well-known sources in light of new discoveries, it offers an alternative approach in the face of contradictory claims by both contemporary accounts and later Mormon interpretations.
