:''Now, I have had many things to happen in my life, but I never had anything like that. I went into a trance...And I--I looked up, and kind of in the shape of a pyramid, standing before me, was little small birds, something like a half-inch long. And they were up at the top on the limbs, they was a--may say three or four, and the next--next limb had maybe eight or ten, and down at the bottom had fifteen or twenty. They were little warriors, because their feathers was beaten; and looked like they were trying to talk to me, saying something.'' | :''Now, I have had many things to happen in my life, but I never had anything like that.

And all of sudden they taken a notion to fly, and away they went eastward. | :''For it made it so purpose that He didn't want me to fail to see where it was at, I was picking a sand burr off of me from the desert.
