Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jim Jones talks about his work with Peoples Temple, primarily during his years in Indianapolis, in an informal setting with a small number of people with him. Between the quality of the recording and the duplication of the tape resulting in accelerated speech, the audio is marginal. It contains very little new information about Jones\u2019 life.<\/p>\n

FBI Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Date of transcription: 3\/14\/79<\/p>\n
