	jgnat: We had always been told by the Watchtower Society that most of the "evil servant" class had faded away because of their break with "God's organization."  Obviously, it was not true since many of these "Bible Student" groups still exist.  In the 1950s I remember two groups in the city where I lived:  The Dawn Bible Students and the Associated Bible Students.  Occasionally, we would meet members of this group when going from house to house.  Most were elderly and friendly.  I remember several trying to tell me that they represented Russell and his movement not the Watchtower Society.    Of course, I was too young and naive to accept their explanations.  And we were warned not to get into discussions with any "evil servants." Today, it amazes me how the life of one man, C.T. Russell, has influenced the lives of so many other people.  Some of the Bible Student groups still study his writings and view him as the "faithful and discreet slave" and the "Laodicean Messenger."  Yet, his writings are a classic example of failed predictions and expectations.
