It was May now, and Ashley and I had been talking about when she would take her hat off. She only had a couple of bald spots showing. We decided by June that it should be entirely covered and then she would stop wearing her hat, but the Lord changed our plans. He told us in two weeks she was to take her hat off. Two weeks came, and her head still had a few bald spots. Heart-broken, we both knew what had to be done. On the way to school, she put her hat on her head.

Dee and I went since we were both mother and father. After the luncheon, Prophet Earlycut began to prophesy to the fathers. We decided to stay over and help clean up.
