This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

the city has a large enough Catholic population to allow for public Good

Friday processions, then it is not unreasonable that the theater to be

closed IN THE EVENING on that day.


I don't see the word "early" in the text, but that's still fine. I
don't think the theater does matinees, anyway. I'm convinced that Good
Friday is the intended day, and thanks for finding yet another Passion
reference. The more I look for them in this story, the more I find.
