You did make Pask sound very anxious. It's interesting that he didn't know what day he left. It must have been a very spur-of-the-moment decision to run away; he didn't put it off until a particular holy day arrived that he could use to mark the beginning of his time away. Thank you for reading this. mwt That was a marvelous job. You did make Pask sound very anxious. It’s interesting that he didn’t know what day he left.

I can't imagine being him and having to live somewhere a year and a day to be free. I think he's a survivor, but you did make him sound sad too. It's a hard life they lived back then! Yet we still have runaways and we still have people who are hungry. What we do about as a country is different. It's harder to help now, becasue it seems like there are too many to help, but even then there were a lot of people who needed help. Its the same now, but entirely different too. Amazing.
