Dixon goes to the site of the  massacre, not as a Quaker, but as Mason.
And he does not pray. But he gives an idea of how he would pray. We take

LUKE 18:1-8

Why bring these various religions together in a Jesuit coach? 

Is anyone in the room or in the coach being honest with the others? Or
are they all playing games, winks and nods, whispers and eyes rolling,
notes bent and  truths twisted, pretence, favoritism, flirtation, rose
colored code and convention, speaking metaphorically, setting traps and
pretending?
