 The Waverley Series and Don Quixote: Manuscripts Found and Lost, by Patricia S. Gaston
For instance, we may hypothesize that the found manuscript device and the historical novel link in the idea that history is itself a found manuscript —the plot, action, and characterization having already been acted out in historical events, then laid aside to await discovery and narrative treatment by later transcribers, editors and others.
By using the found manuscript device, the author of the book at hand defers narrative authority and responsibility by attributing the production of the original text to another writer —one who is at least one remove from the reader because of this ploy.
But it also turns the found manuscript motif back upon itself in a curious, informative way: being an extension of a literary tradition, any later text is, in a very real sense, a found manuscript; being grounded in historical event, the same is true for any form of historical discourse —including the historical novel.

 Matilda Spalding Revisited
During his 1839 interview, Haven asked Matilda, "Does the manuscript and the Book of Mormon agree?" To which Matilda replied, "I think some of the names agree." She also said that she was not certain about the agreement of names and that she had not read the Book of Mormon.
It appears from this exchange that what Kelley meant when he said "identify the manuscript," and what Matilda understood him to mean, was "identify Spalding's handwriting." Matilda, not being a handwriting expert, was of course uncertain that she could tell the difference between Spalding's authentic writing and a forgery.
Instead Matilda's response was to categorically deny on three separate occasions that this story was what she remembered as the "Manuscript Found." It is regrettable that Matilda did not have more to say about the "Manuscript Found," but interviews are generally guided by the interests of the interviewer.

When Buddhist sutras are found inside sculptures, conservators and curators often disagree on the appropriateness of removing these rolled-up documents from their consecrated compartments and treating them individually as works on paper.
Indian palm-leaf manuscripts present fewer ethical problems for the conservator, as they are often collected individually for their illustrated images, and many beautiful examples exist in museums, libraries, and private collections.

 The Mythical "Manuscript Found" - FARMS Review
Although it was supposedly "Manuscript Found" that was taken to the printer, McKee's reference to a manuscript still needing a chapter or two fits "Manuscript Story," which breaks off in the middle of the final war between the rival factions, supporting the conclusion that two such manuscripts never existed.
In what the authors call their "strongest piece of evidence" that "Manuscript Story" and "Manuscript Found" were separate works, they cite testimony from two of Spalding's neighbors in Amity, Pennsylvania, who knew Spalding before his death and who claim to have seen Spalding's manuscript, which they described as having been written on foolscap paper (pp. 90–91).

 Myth of the Manuscript Found by George Reynolds & Manuscript Story by Rev. Solomon Spaulding (1893)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
One of the first attacks against the authenticity of the Book of Mormon was by the excommunicated Doctor Philastus Hurlburt whose story about the book's origins has fed detractors of the LDS Church since the 1830s.
Because Spaulding's original manuscript was lost, researchers were unable to verify the claim and those opposed to the Latter-day Saints found the story to be a convenient way to explain the authorship of the Book of Mormon as well as to add evidence to Joseph Smith's deception.
In this double volume, Elder George Reynolds researches affidavits by members of the Spaulding family and demonstrates the lack of both internal and external evidences pointing to the manuscript as a base for the Book of Mormon; afterwhich the Spaulding Manuscript (now found) is quoted in its entirety.
