Isaac Hale, Joseph Smith's father-in-law. In 1834, he laid it out on how Joseph Smith supposedly translated the Book of Mormon.
"The manner in which he pretended to read and interpret, was the same as when he looked for the money-diggers, with the stone in his hat, and his hat over his face, while the Book of Plates were at the same time hid in the woods!"
His statement can be read on page 264
