Judge not

What is right, and what is wrong? I asked myself this question after reading your article on Dr. Morris Patteson. I'm not condoning anything Morris did or has done in the past, and I'm sure the Dispatch Record felt compelled to report the news as they saw fit. And I think Jim Lowe is a very honorable man in every sense of the word.

But I believe the Bible says it best. "He who is without sin cast the first stone" and "Judge not lest ye be judged." People with drinking problems. Want to see my list? People with drug problems, same thing. They all need help and prayers. But let's see if these folks have contributed as much to Lampasas as Morris has.

How would you like this job? Up at 5:30 or 6 a.m. each day talking to nothing but sick people all day long, fixing problems, listening to all the aches and pains, then off to the hospital, then you get home around 7 or 8 each night. My hat goes off to Dr. Patteson and all the doctors here in Lampasas.

So even though you felt it was necessary to print this story, I feel you have taken a good man's livelihood into your hands. I hope that it all works out for the best, but I believe the damage has been done. My prayers go out to Morris and Nancy, and I know that God will see you through this hard time. By the way, did you know they raised three fine sons right here in Lampasas?

Even though Dr. Lane is my doctor, I would not hesitate to put my life in the hands of Dr. Morris Patteson.
