Doctor did not mention the petition or give us an opportunity to take our names off, which we would not have done. He may be saving a special kind of humiliation for us by giving us a chance to take our names off in the presence of the entire Forum on Sunday—with all other names already removed. I intend to take the floor and will have to be thrown out bodily before I will surrender it . . . demanding that charges be preferred against me before the whole Forum body . . . that he read me the same communications he has read to others. If he does not, I have had a report on them and will have to take a different tack, recalling them and depending upon the memory of Forum members to know what I’m referring to . . . particularly with reference to the charges which have been made against me. And then answering these charges, point by point.

The stage is set and I hope I am being spiritually rehearsed for my part, during the night seasons, as I will need great wisdom and love and guidance on Sunday.

So much has been happening, I’ve neglected to answer some questions or points you have raised in recent letters.

Under existing circumstances it, of course, would be unwise to bring the woman book publisher on to read the [manu]script, or her wealthy lady friend.

It has come to me a number of times recently that the last name of the subject or instrument is “BROWN.” This seems like such a common name . . . could I be right? If I told the doctor privately some time that I knew the name of the subject, I think he would be paralyzed. If I am supposed to be entrusted with something authoritative to impress the mortal commissioners, I hope it is granted me. . . .

The Matterns are standing by, like rocks of Gibraltar, to “protect us” on Sunday. The outcome is in the hands of God. I will be doing my Father’s work as I feel He would direct me. My constant prayer is, “Thy will be done.”

The doctor will try every trick to get me off the floor and promise “another time” for considering such a matter . . . and I may get the ill-will of certain ultra-religious members by standing my ground . . . but if I don’t face him down now . . . I see no chance in the future. He is really afraid to FACE ME before this first Forum meeting, wanting to keep me in the dark so I cannot confront him. By demanding that he make charges against me in public and that he read the communications to me, the only thing he can hide behind is that he is acting on “higher instructions” and cannot do otherwise. How much weight this will carry with the membership, I do not know. Certainly all are apparently COWED now, through FEAR of punishment from on high, unbelievable as this may seem.
