this file is heavily redacted but there is a letter to Paul Ernst, BSA National Council, from
Norman J. Stone, Scout Executive as follows: “Dear Paul, Here is the information
regarding EDGAR TISDALE and the alleged child molestation at our Camp Hahobas in

1989. ” Included in the files is a narrative about how the child regressed to age 4 and was
hospitalized for three weeks.
