The first National Spiritual Assembly of Haiti (1961), with Ellsworth Blackwell (5th from left) and Ruth Blackwell (second from right). I attended many meeting with these two in 1975, Ellsworth talking and Ruth translating. Ellsworth was earlier a member of the NSA of the US. Not too long after my arrival in Haiti, the Blackwells went to Madagascar.
