Summary Note

This tape consists of three segments, labeled Parts 2 through 4, since the first part is a continuation of Part 2 from the previous tape, Q 1059 (2). Similarly, Part 4 continues on to the next tape, Q 1059 (4). There is one indicator that Part 3 was recorded soon after Part 2, and perhaps even later in the same service, as there is a reference in each to a boy with a heart condition that the Temple is working to help. However, it may also be true that Part 4 may have been recorded later the same day as Part 3, since the recording conditions are similar and Jones' voice is about the same, following a 30-second space of dead air, but that is not certain. What cannot be true is that they were all recorded the same day, since the two specific time references are 16 months apart. Full summary of the recording available at Alternative Considerations of Jonestown website, along with the tape transcript.
