Editorial promissory note paid across nearly five centuries of the record's story: Mosiah 28:19 defers the translated twenty-four-plates account of the destroyed people ('this account' — the translation narrated at Mosiah 28:11-18), and Ether 1:1 opens the payment, with the object identified one verse later: 'And I take mine account from the twenty and four plates which were found by the people of Limhi, which is called the Book of Ether' (Ether 1:2). The phrase 'written hereafter' stands at exactly one corpus verse, Mosiah 28:19 (verified by a search of the corpus). Typed paraphrase: promise and payment restate one proposition (this account shall be written / I proceed to give the account); no distinctive string spans the ends. Class precedent: mos-mormon-ed-baptism-hereafter (Mosiah 21:35 <-> 25:17), the same editorial promissory-note shape paid four chapters later; this is the record's longest-deferred payment of the class.
