<TITLE>17. Par 85-89</TITLE>L-85 And that woman wasn't supposed to be standing there by her husband. She was supposed to be leaning against the door. And I thought, "O God, I killed the baby. I... Oh, my."
And the father laid the baby down, and she started screaming and crying and everything. I just stood there. I thought, "Oh, my. What have I done? What have I done?" And I waited just a little while, and the baby, oh, just barely living, got worse right now.
And I thought, "Oh, if I killed that baby, oh, but not killed it myself, but been the cause, if I'd obeyed what He told me to do, but I just let it... And that's true, folks. God in heaven knows it's truth, here before this Bible.

L-86 And I thought... Well now, I walked over and sat down there. And it come daylight, set there about an hour. And it come daylight. Mister Snelling said, "Well, I've got to go to work," he said, "I..."
I thought, "Oh, my. If they take him, that's the blond-headed man that was setting on that duofold at... If it does, the whole vision's ruined, and I--I've spoiled the whole picture." Me setting there, oh, I--My heart just a bleeding in me. And they'd say something to me, and I wouldn't even answer. I just set there. I couldn't tell them, because I thought, maybe God in some way would rectify it and fix the picture again. So I just set there, just--just looking.
And they said, "Brother Branham, do you want to pray again for the baby?"
I said, "Thanks." I set down... I thought, "Oh, where's that old woman, and oh..." Now... And Brother Graham went and put on his coat.
John said, "Brother Branham, do you want to go back to Jeffersonville with us?"
I said, "No, thanks." I had to stay there. I thought, "It'll will be night before, and that baby can't, I don't see how it can make it another hour." And there it was in that condition, daylight coming. And usually, you know what sick people, right about the break of day. I thought, "Oh, here it is, my, what I've done."

L-87 And the first thing... Mr. Snelling put on his coat and started to go out. And Mr. Emmel told his wife, said, "Well, good-bye, honey," said, "I'll be back, as soon as I take Graham on down so he can go to work." And said... He was working at one of those plants.
He said, "I'll--I'll be back after while, and I'm not going to work this morning."
And she said, "All right, dear."
And I was setting over there; I thought, "Oh..." And I happened to look up out the window, and here come the baby's grandmother, walking with a little satchel in her hand, with a pair of glasses on too, gray-headed, walking around, going into the back. Now, every time she witnessed before, she'd always come to the front door. But she went back to the little kitchen to come in.

L-88 And I thought, "Oh, that's her; that's the woman." I didn't know it was the grandmother of the child then, but I knowed it was the woman that was in the vision. And so here she come walking right... And I thought, "Here it is. Here it is. The grace of God's going to over ride it." I thought it in my heart, you know, I was standing there, watching the old woman.
And she come around and went in the back door. And when she opened the door, said, I said, "Who is that?" And Brother Graham was standing at the door, him and Mr. Emmel fixing to go out.

L-89 So the mother went to open the kitchen door to look in to the kitchen, and the old... The mother of the baby, the young woman looked out there, and here--and said, "Oh, it's mother." And John and Graham just turned around. And when they did, I raised up from where I was setting, because Graham was supposed to be setting there.
So I--I raised up and looked back, and the mother come. She said (called the baby by name), she said, "Is the baby still living? Is it better?"
