  vienne, I have bad news and I have good news.

  Bad news, you stated that "Some books were quietly dropped as quickly as possible." There is only one book which is not to be found in the app or .org, and that is the Commentary on the Book of James, which by the way was not a Franz but a Dunlap product. Even the Ezechiel book with its comment that the work is to be completed within the end of the 20th century, is there.

  But I also have good news. I have just completed reading the "Separate Identity", volume I, and it was a very interesting and refreshing book. Although somewhat difficult to follow at times for a European not too familiar with the various American groups of the 19th century, it was - to quote myself - a very good book. I have ordered volume II from amazon.co.uk where it is far cheaper than at amazon.com, and look forward to receive it.

  Appearances .............

  When watching the recent GB, four of them look very much alike (Morris, Jackson, Sanderson, Cook), they are more or less overweight, not tall, they are very "buddy-like" towards each other, joking.

  Then in come Fleegle and Winder, and they are totally different. They are taller, slim, glasses, very short hair, look as if they come directly from the gym, and their eyes/look are very alert, sharp, no fuzz. My first impression, of course of no importance whatsoever, but still ...... they look like two who can bring new vigour, new outlook, something different into the group.

  And by the way, one of them DID come from Service dept. - Fleegle.

  YB74 on Sullivan:

  At 10 o’clock the annual meeting of the Society was called to order by the president, and it was shown that 415 of the members, of the total membership of 427, were present either in person or by proxy. Then he informed those in attendance that Brother T. J. Sullivan, who has been a faithful and beloved brother and director of the Society for approximately forty years, had found it necessary to resign on September 5, 1973. This he did due to physical handicap, mainly his sight, failing health, and his age being eighty-five years. As Brother Sullivan wrote in his letter: “It seems beyond my physical capacity to meet the very heavy requirements of a director of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania. Under the circumstances therefore it seems entirely in accord with Jehovah’s will . . . that this resignation take place as soon as possible.” Brother Sullivan also wrote that he considered this privilege of service as director “one of the most joyful services which I have experienced since being associated with the Watch Tower Society.”

  A few weeks earlier the board of directors had accepted his resignation, so now it was necessary to recommend another director in his place. W. K. Jackson’s name was put in nomination. He was unanimously elected for a period of three years

  inbetween, re the German website:

  In some other languages too, he is still mentioned as a member, so clearly they are still working on finding all the articles where he is mentioned. In the "Life Stories" section, he is deleted from the list of "Life Stories of Current Governing Body Members".

  Fisherman, you said that "Unless this is history in the making with a new policy, nobody from the governing body in the past stepped down for health reasons or old age. They all died gb."

  I am SO sorry to disappoint you, but Thomas James Sullivan resigned July 5 1973 due to health reasons, and died July 30 1974.

  As always, the annual death rate is forgotten. They went to hades. With an annual death rate of 1 %, between 85,000 and 90,000 have died each year, totalling between 425,000 and 450,000 in these five years. So there you have it.
