I can’t conceive of the birth not being followed in the order in which I’ve told you, I can’t. Therefore, he’s forgotten all. And the same one whose letter came about not bringing back that name but in the depths of his being he knew it perfectly, as he surfaced he forgot it, there are reasons, possibly, in the whole play for him to forget the other two. Surely, from the letter that I had recently I must conclude he’s had the experience. And from my own chronological record I can see how it happened to all others. Christine had it in the same manner. Bob had it. Benny had it…he has one coming up in July, waiting anxiously for July…but he certainly had the other two in the order in which I said he would have them. And so, if the order remains this way, I can’t see how he would have one…and from what he told me, I am convinced of the birth. Well, the others…he didn’t bring through the name, therefore, he didn’t bring through the others. It’s in a way unfortunate, because it’s such a dramatic scriptural effort, a compelling thing to prove to one the truth of scripture. But, maybe his choice in this section of time is for something different.446 ¶36
