(please look at all photos for condition) Stephen Foot & The Oxford Group Had an Enormous Influence on Bill Wilson, the Co-Founder of Alcoholics Anonymous Who Had Been a Member of the Oxford Group Prior to Founding Alcoholics Anonymous!!!HOW THE MESSAGE CAME TO BILL W. In 1932 and 1933, a man named Rowland H., son of wealthy Rhode Island mill owners and a State Senator, had become a hopeless alcoholic, and in his quest for help had sought out the world famous psychiatrist, Carl Jung. Jung told him there was no hope for him there, and to go home and possibly find a conversion through some religious group. He did this in the Oxford Group in the United States and became sober. They taught him certain principles that he applied to his life. This story is documented in our Big Book. In 1934, Ebby T., childhood friend of Bill W.'s, was about to be locked up as a chronic drunk in Bennington, Vermont. He was visited by three men from an Oxford Group; Shep C., Rowland H., and Cebra G. (A precursor to our Twelve Step work!) They later sent Rowland H. back alone to see Ebby. He acted as a sort of sponsor and told his story. He taught Ebby the precepts he had learned from the Oxford Group. Later, as we know, in December of that year, Ebby had his chance to relay these precepts to Bill W. Here they are, transcribed from a tape of one of Bill's AA talks:• We admitted we were licked.• We got honest with ourselves.• We talked it over with another person.• We made amends to those we had harmed.• We tried to carry this message to others with no thought of reward.• We prayed to whatever God we thought there was.
