Hammond quickly heads for Morgue town, Texas. He had no way of knowing that it was the very direction that Thomas was last seen headed.

Hammond: “What a break, I am determined to solve this dilemma of deception that seems to fit Mr. Hankins’s model more closely than most could afford to believe.”

LINDA MCKINLEY and HEALTHCARE

Now, in Morgue Town, there lived a middle aged lady named Linda D. McKinley. Her mother was now 88 years old. She had spent all that she had to get treatment for her mother but in spite of doing so found that few would venture to buck the system and none could use medical facilities without being brought into question. You see her mother was too old for the system to spend the kind of money on her that it would take for real treatment. After all she was 88 years old and had lived a bountiful life already.

In the night before entering town, Thomas had dreamed that he was to go to a certain house and speak to a lady named Linda McKinley. If the woman told him all her heart, he was supposed to do whatever seemed
good at the time.

Thomas: knocking on Linda’s door. “Is there any one home." He asked?

Linda: Linda came and looked through the peep hole).“Who it is?" She asked.

Thomas has remembered in the dream, what he was suppose to say.

Thomas: “I was sent by a friend to see if I can be of assistance.”

In fact a medical doctor had told her that if he was able to get a renegade team of doctors to help her, he would. They would then visit and say those exact words. This particular doctor had been recently taken into custody along with his friends. Her case had broken their hearts because her mother had done great things in her life to help many. Now it has been legislated that she gives her life, without her consent. All these captured protesting medical professionals can do is pray for this unfortunate woman and other like her.

Linda: Quickly opens the door.  “Please come on in! Where are your medical supplies?”

Thomas: “My supply of medical help is near.”

Linda: “Thank God! It may be too late now but at least my mother deserves a shot at life and not just pain medication. You know, up until a year ago, she could still help others. She drove her car anywhere she wanted to go. If it wasn’t for this disease, she looked as though she would make 100 easy.”

Thomas: “From what does she suffer?”

Linda: “Didn’t they tell you?  Who are you and why are you here?  How did you know what to say to get in my house?  You are from the authorities, aren’t you? What did you do torture Doctor Steele to get that information?”
