I was at Mid Continent Library in Independence MO this weekend and they had this book in their collection. After looking through this book, and most of the other stuff available at this library, very thoroughly on Friday & Saturday(today), I have decided that Benjamin Pyle was an immaculate conception or was spontaneously concepted or hatched or whatever you want to call it, but the man does NOT have a father. I give up. Anyone have any ideas? I am open to any suggestions. Peg
