But then comes the problem of what part of HPB's life would they film. Perhaps the famous gathering at the Eddy farm, where Abner Doubleday is teaching baseball to HPB and the Colonel as a seance is going on in the farmhouse. As one of the mediums (after 500 choruses of "In the Sweet, Bye and Bye") asks the spirits for a sign, HPB hits a home run and the baseball comes crashing through the window, disembraining the medium and scaring poor KH half to death while Thomas Edison proceeds to electrocute half the attendees. If anyone wonders what a film about the early TS would be like, let them watch Welcome to Wellville. Chuck the Heretic Chuck the Heretic
