No apology for claiming Smith hurt me.

Consider the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
Do different monks claim different ownership to portions and times?

as has been noted,
repeatedly.

No, I mentioned Ben C. Smith as one indication why most scholars would not come or stay here.

Obviously one need not have seen the document before 1958 to think it legit. Like, say, you.

2) who did that.
Maybe I have failed to make that distinction, with some.
