Here is the revision of my preface to the letter.

Preface

Uncle Emanuel Watkins is a hypothetical character.  Much like when businessmen refer to 'widgets' when speaking about hypothetical business models and methods, so Uncle Emanuel Watkins is an ideal position of government created of, by, and for the people.  The honorific title of 'Fd.' at the beginning of his name means 'Founder.'  A Founder is someone who is an ideal leader, but is neither a legal attorney nor anyone having anything to do with law.  In novel fashion, he or she has earned this title by the writing of 'simple writs.'

A simple writ is a style of writing.  In contrast to the more official essay which divides the potential reading audience into many classifications and dichotomies, a writer of a simple writ should imagine shrinking the whole world down to within the lone being of a wretch.  If you too decide that you want to walk down this path, here are the rules to follow.  First, write your writs while experiencing the harshest of elements both out on the hottest of days and the coldest of nights.  As the wretch will be suffering from these same harsh conditions, limit the contents of your writs to one side of a single page.  This way she won't become distracted by having to turn it over to read the other side.  Don't reference your information as she won't have the means to validate it.  While the king will have lots of leisure time for personal enrichment, in contrast, the wretch will be quite desperate.  Next, never condescend to her.  And, finally, remember, as she is only a metaphor, you don't ever have to give her the message.            

The following is an example of a simple writ:
     

Reading towards the end of the Gospel of Mark, I had to marvel.  As revealed in this gospel, the wretched little sisters who buried the body of Christ after His resurrection were already functioning as the church even to the extent that it was said they were already speaking with angels.  So, being a typical man, I had to ask myself the question of why such people in their right minds would venture out to gather a lost flock of disciples for the purpose of placing them as an authority over their own heads?  In considering the behavior of these sisters, don't get religious on me.  Sure, one could argue that these sisters were broken in their beings and transformed to an extent that they were able and willing to follow after the Holy Spirit.  I'm sure this reasoning is part of the correct answer.

Actually, I believe these sisters had to create this authority in order to take care of the head of John.  See, the disciple John was born mentally ill which is why he had to keep his head in direct and constant contact with Christ.  After Christ's crucifixion, he began to fall ill again.  So, in order to care of him, the sisters realized John needed to keep his head in direct contact with the Holy Spirit.  In order to usher in this Holy Spirit, the sisters had to build up the church which required establishing an authority.   

These little sisters of the early church were like worthless insects to the fallen emperors and kings.  Spiritually speaking, the lowest form of life on earth are supposed to be the insects.  The reason for this is their lack of having any face.  As a face represents a person's authority, insects are shown the least amount of respect.  So, as the brilliant face of Christ would have the greatest of authority, the insects would have the very least.  Only after establishing this proper perspective can we then take the very least among all the worthless insects and utilize them in order to glorify the greatest who created them.  I'm speaking here about the little ants.

Like the wretch herself, these ants are always in a desperate battle for survival.  They are our little sisters as they are fighting along with us in our battle to remain as living organisms with free wills.  However, these ants can't devolve to become much smaller than they are.  In doing so, they would be in danger of perishing into another living cell becoming nameless and faceless parts called organelles.  Like being eaten and becoming part of a larger living organism, this condition is tantamount to losing ones soul.    

So, for the time being, the ant has resorted to storing away the males of her species.  Indeed, not being able to even feed themselves, the drone ants are as helpless as babes.  In order to get matters under control, the ant colony of female ants are the ones who do all the working, the managing, and the fighting of wars.  Indeed, the males in an ant colony aren't needed for the colonies survival, but for its potential grow to one day thrive as living beings with free wills.          

So, the little sisters in the Gospel of Mark went out of their way to gather an authority over their heads not for the reason of behaving more responsible and equal.  No, the reason they were able to do so was out of concern for the well-being of another.

Then again, my interpretation of that particular passage of the Gospel of Mark may be one hundred percent off the mark!
