Summary Note
This two sides of this tape are unrelated, with the first side being much more significant. On side one, Marceline Jones speaks with her adopted daughter Suzanne on the telephone, about a month before the deaths in Jonestown. Suzanne has been alienated from her family – especially her father – for some time when the conversation takes place, yet there is a sense of attempted reconciliation, or at least overtures to continue conversations, throughout most of it. Full summary of the recording available at Alternative Considerations of Jonestown website, along with the tape transcript.
