Do not cite it as authoritative. [1:14] This is a memorandum from a file that he picked it up. [1:26] It's by Mr. O'Farrill in the field on the 23rd of January, 1973. [1:27] I had some problems with this machine when I was on the water count. [1:48] I did not finish the paper regarding the relatives, I think, when I was coming to the conclusion. [2:13] I was talking about Alice. [2:14] She was very young and happy. [2:14] I recall those years when she lived with us. [2:15] She was a very nice girl. [2:16] In fact, it's really remarkable how those children, [2:25] And what happened was that all of the sisters liked him, and they were both in Ghana. [2:46] He used to come home to Grandmother Melana's house, come home with the children. [2:47] Grandmother Melana's situation was very similar to all of the children's. [2:56] This is a [3:26] finally at least got wrapped up for the moment. [4:09] . [4:33] . [4:33] . [4:33] . [4:33] . [4:33] . [4:33] . [4:33] . [4:33] . [4:33] . [4:33] . [4:40] I know what I should do. [5:11] And... [5:56] ... ... ... ... ... [6:29] I guess we both always have to at least see one thing that's in your eyes. [6:37] That already made me a sinner. [6:38] I'm just trying to figure out what it is for them. [6:57] We got a message from a parent that got paid with all I want. [7:28] I have no idea why he called me that. [8:27] He, uh, he, uh, the statement that they got around Johnson was twice as long. [8:54] I don't know how long it was. [8:55] I don't know how long it was. [8:55] I don't know how long it was. [8:56] I don't know how long it was. [9:07] What did you hear? [9:36] Right. [10:03] Right. [10:08] I didn't get a long message from an officer. [10:28] He also thought that the case was very fragile, and he didn't plan to place it on my title. [10:30] It was a kind of big grenade, of course. [10:31] The officer, to the level of that, said that he wasn't going to hide it as much longer as it was. [10:33] If anybody was in the bathroom, as I said, it would be a very, very heavy play. [10:39] We made a few calls. [10:56] Albert sort of took it one way or the other and raised the point that he was going to find a way to find a difficult place in the late course, in the late hour, in the house. [11:00] Maxie would also sort of ask for the same. [11:01] My idea is that both Maxie and Albert probably sort of get to know each other better. [11:16] Mr. Stennis, however, raised the point that ID was spent on the soft of it. [11:38] The problem was the line of sensitivity in regard to Johnston. [11:39] So, yeah, the line of sensitivity was there. [11:40] But, in any event, we got through with all the objectives and comments that were in line with the totals of the board building. [11:43] Although, it had to be ruled out for some reason in regard to Johnston. [11:45] I'm not going to be talking about the resolution, but it was more recent for us to go to the Congress and then have not only what I said, but then to have Heidelberg and McGovern and the fellow absentee members sit down in Congress. [12:22] I don't think [12:51] that we've covered for what it is uh [13:20] I was fighting up so very intensively to sleep, and I had to, uh, I don't know, break out some, uh, blockage. [13:43] I had, uh, two glasses of it, uh, and, uh, another half of that. [13:45] I had to go to the postal company, and I had some cheese and crackers, and I took a nap for an hour or an hour and a half. [13:47] Uh, I, uh, had to do this for some time, and I realized that it took a lot of hours before it was 10 o'clock, and, uh, [13:57] So I kind of go talk to him. [14:28] and other aspects of the story and bring it out to the public to find out what's really going on. [14:42] Of course, I think one of the questions we talked about is the public about the way that the curators are educated in the courts and the principle of life in the public. [14:58] Colson, of course, is really all out for a terrible hell out of the opposition. [15:20] And we're sure that I've got him laid out and locked out in the ground a little soon. [15:21] And he's been shot. [15:22] I have all of them harbored in this case. [15:22] They are not good. [15:23] They have a group of things. [15:23] They love the hangers. [15:24] They love the wall. [15:24] But we are going to have Henry Green when he comes back. [15:25] I've got to find Colson to get him back. [15:29] uh uh [16:10] It was great to read some of the films, most of them were really good. [16:27] I gave Price a big, I don't know, I don't want to say very little, actually, with regard to what I thought the press was doing, you know, so despite what they might have said, they were starting to smile back at us. [16:41] Of course, we're not getting too confident about it. [17:12] uh uh [17:40] uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, [18:11] I thought you were white. [18:49] Radio there, but it was, uh, uh, it was, uh, Josh, the father of the man, put it right in there. [19:04] So, it's a conversation that I've had with him. [19:05] There's, uh, there's the case I'm talking about. [19:25] Yeah. [20:15] ... ... ... [20:50] I think that's . [21:20] But any of that, this whole problem, one question or another, is that people go in and get overpaid, and they're in terrible trouble, etc. [22:03] and I have done some case. [22:23] I know that in the future, we simply have to see if the rolling on shelves and all the rest of the money is set up for substance use. [22:26] Very good. [22:26] That's the highest I can speak of those things. [22:27] We'll all be out of hands. [22:28] We'll put them in without consulting anybody else. [22:29] Whether we're going to have to have to be in this press conference or leaders group and so forth, it has to be done. [22:31] I don't know. [22:31] I don't know. [22:33] I also went down to home and, uh, we had, we had the responsibility to, uh, see if the president was not overworked in his time. [22:47] He was the first on a mission, the second on a mission, which is how, uh, the problem began. [23:07] When you have too many appointments in a day, when you shave too many hands in a day, when you have to get up at two minutes to eat something, or around two minutes to rest, that means we could have a full assault. [23:31] And orderly means that you cannot recover twice, but you cannot stand back as well. [23:33] You must pace yourself. [23:41] Thank you. [24:19] Yes. [25:27] Thanks for watching!
