==All eleven Book of Mormon witnesses publicly reaffirmed their testimony as printed==

Richard Anderson described multiple accounts of ''all'' the Witnesses bearing testimony and reaffirming their published testimony:<ref>{{Book:Anderson:Investigating the Book of Mormon Witnesses|pages=137-138}}</ref>

:The three Smiths who formally gave their names as seeing and handling the plates were the Prophet's father, Joseph Smith, Sr.; the Prophet's older brother, Hyrum; and his immediately younger brother, Samuel Harrison. They sometimes joined the other Book of Mormon witnesses to reaffirm their testimony printed in the 1830 edition of the Book of Mormon regarding lifting and turning the leaves of the plates. After quoting the published statements of the Three and Eight Witnesses, and describing the experience of the latter group, Lucy Smith relates, "The ensuing evening, we held a meeting, in which all the witnesses bore testimony to the facts as stated above."<ref>{{Book:Smith:Biographical Sketches of Joseph Smith and Progenitors|pages=141}} </ref> Two years later, in the period of dynamic preaching of the early elders, a conference was held near Cleveland, Ohio, remembered by Luke Johnson as follows: "At this conference the eleven witnesses to the Book of Mormon, with uplifted hands, bore their solemn testimony to the truth of that book, as did also the Prophet Joseph."<ref>''Deseret News'' (26 May 1858).</ref>
