That's an interesting, indirect tension-filled scene.She was a «Maiden Aunt» but no wallflower just pragmatic, thoughtful, and discreet in her own quasi-religious way about US, the child(ren) she didn't have. She was a hotel manager so had seen and dealt with just about everything you can imagine. The magazine disappeared from its hiding place and I know noone else in the family could have discovered it. She never said anything overtly but «asides» now and again led me to surmise she knew maybe more than I did at the time. I never brought up the «Decision» magazines but threw them in the neighbour's garbage as fast as they arived until they finally stopped.
I went to a Billy Graham event at age 11. I even went down for the altar call the the "promise" of some spiritual moment. and would you believe it? nothing happened.
