As you can see by the letterhead, I am involved in the underlined: Dubious role of a minister - and I can tell you that I find that underlined: The Disinherited was perhaps the voice of the most Christian conscience in Randolph county when it was written, unless I could place Bob Kingsbury and Jack Conroy in a dead heat for the "boner" (Tho I doubt if either of you would be either anxious or concerned to claim that title! It has been many years since I have spent any time in Moberly - Most recently I have been living abroad in Turkey, where I was engaged in Muslim studies and teaching in our American schools there! I re-read underlined: The Disinherited last summer on vacation back in Moberly and I realized how much a social revolution had taken
