Random Thoughts...
I came into the Walk just after there had been a split in the Valley church, supposedly over someone that JRS called a witch. However, Woodrow Nichols' research paper, An Experiment in End-Time Apostasy: The Walk of John Robert Stevens, tells a more complete story. In Chapter 9: The Split of 1967, Nichols talks about division in the eldership. All I heard chatter about at the time was a witch named Salyer and how she had deceived a good portion of the congregation and they left.
I find it odd that the Nichols' paper can no longer be found on the internet. Is it possible for organizations to pressure websites to remove negative information about them? All I could find lately is this short summary. [www.dialogueireland.org]
