Death's Final Undoing

The following is a recorded transcript from a handheld tape recorder thought to be dictated by a man known only on the JMU campus as "Death".  The recorder was found lying on a picnic bench in Harrisonburg, Virginia's Purcell Park in October of 1998.

The rest of the tape contained static and garbled audio that is currently being encoded.  No one has seen or heard from Death since the fall of 1998.
