Page 313: Although The Romance of Celes was never published, Spalding's relatives kept it, revered it, and passed it down through the generations, reading from it at family reunions for over one hundred years. On October 17, 1946, Mrs. Bessie Spalding Fox Donaldson decided to donate it to the Library of Congress, which was logged as "a religious novel written in Ohio by Solomon Spaulding (or Spalding) (b. 1761, d. 1816)". For the last 150 years, all Mormon historians and apologists (with the exception of Dale Broadhurst) have been largely ignorant of (or silent on) the matter of The Romance of Celes.
Page 315: As a student of linguistics and having served as a missionary for ten years, Spalding would have had no difficulty emulating the style, wordiness, and pacing of the KJV. He must have accessed it repeatedly while constructing his characters (Jared, Enoch, Laban, etc.) and while anchoring his Bible-burlesquing fan fiction to scriptural events (e.g., the Tower of Babel, the destruction of Jerusalem, and the resurrection of Christ). Turning our attention to Rigdon, it is fair to say that the KJV influenced everything about him, including the daydreams that he mistook for revelations. That Rigdon inserted portions of the KJV purely from his ample memory is gleaned from two slightly imperfect extended quotations in which he subconsciously substituted the nonrestrictive relative pronoun "which" in place of the restrictive relative pronoun "that." There should be no doubt that Rigdon also used it as a source, especially when copying entire passages from the Book of Isaiah while rewriting the lost 116 pages.
