<TITLE>02. Par 11-20</TITLE>L-11   This time of fellowship! Old Doctor Bosworth, a friend of mine, many of you might have knowed Brother Bosworth. He was one of the saintliest old man. And he said to me one time, he said, "Brother Branham, you know what fellowship is?"
I said, "I think so, Brother Bosworth."

L-12 Said, "It's two fellows in one ship, so they have to share a little bit."

L-13 So that's what fellowship is, we take and give, share with each other; with Brother Carl Williams, all the rest, Brother Outlaw. Oh, one of the first people in Arizona that ever sponsored one of my meetings, was Brother Jimmy Outlaw, and we've been bosom brothers since that time. And we are very happy for all of you, for the ministers and the brethren that we meet around here. I don't have time to shake hands with everybody, as I like to, but it's a fellowship where we get together.

L-14   It just reminds me of--of the Phoenix convention. I have had the privilege, since the chapters first started, to--to help organize the chapters and speak in them. And it's the only organization I belong to, and it's not an organization. It's just an organism working among the people.

L-15 And if some of you man here this morning, that--that doesn't belong to this fellowship, of this Christian Business Men, Full Gospel, let... if you believe and will take my word, it's one of the finest groups of people. And--and to minister brothers, it's not against your church, it's for your church. See, it's their way of placing in to the--to the church.

L-16 I just happened to look around at this lovely lady here that just sang that song a few moments ago. I've heard many attempts of it, but that lady had a voice could carry it right, you know, without squeaking it, like. I liked that so much, lady, it was very, very fine. Said it was a minister's wife here. And, brother, you ought to have her sing you to sleep each night, so that would be very fine, very fine. It was very fine singing. I appreciated it.

L-17   And, this morning, it kind of reminds me of a little--a little story. That, I--I like to hunt and fish, and that's one of the reasons I'm here in Arizona, so, is getting hunting and fishing. And I like it. And so I was fishing one time in New Hampshire.

L-18 And I guess I got a lot of partners in here that likes to fish, both in the male and female, too, see. We all like it.

L-19 So I had a little pup tent I had packed way high, above where, you know the fellows, kind of a little heavy or something, couldn't walk up there. And there was many fine, of those, brook trout, and brown, square-tail, cutthroat. Oh, they're just full, them little tributaries coming down out of the top of the mountains in New Hampshire. And little trout, maybe fourteen, sixteen inches long, just many of them! And I'd only... I'd go over there and catch them, just for the fun of catching them, turn them loose. If I killed one, then I--I eat that one, you see, bring him in.

L-20   So I had some of this old moose willow growing up, and--and every time I'd switch my fly line... I had a little Royal Coachman. I'd fly back in there with it, I'd switch it around a bunch of moose willow. And I thought, "Well, I'm going to take a hatchet and go up there, this morning, and--and chop that moose willow down, so that I won't catch my line on it." Oh, I looked back under a little old... like a beaver dam, and they were just laying in there, just waiting for that Coachman to get on them. And now, all night long... I used to take out my hair, but I ain't got enough hair for them to get into now. So I--I just... just how they would watch them. And so I got up there, that morning, took this little old hatchet, and cut down this moose willow. And I had three or four, was going to fix for breakfast, and come back. And I'm not a very good cook. And so I told my wife I couldn't boil water without scorching it, so you know that would be pretty bad job of cooking.
