A federal jury listened intently and several courtroom spectators wiped tears from their eyes as the 78-minute conversation between Mrs.

Singer and FBI agent Cal Clegg was played during the federal trial of Mrs. Singer and three family members. The defendant and Clegg spoke on Jan. 16, hours after an explosion ripped through the Kamas Stake Center in Marion and state arid federal agents began surrounding the 2V2-acre Singer farm a mile away. Mrs.

Singer, her son John Timothy Singer, clan leader Addam Swapp and his brother Jonathan are charged in the bombing and a subsequent 13-day standoff that ended in the death of a Utah corrections officer. The church was bombed following a divine revelation, Mrs. Singer told Clegg, and was meant as a sign from God that "he's going to bring the collapse of church, state and have given our lives to God and we have given this whole battle into his hands and he has promised us that hell fight our battles for us, and that's good enough for me," Mrs. Singer said in the tape. "It's just something that was revealed and it's actually a sign to these people that these things are beginning now.

The Lord will come out of his hiding place against church, nation and ful, strong and valiant people left when the Lord gets she said. A lighter moment surfaced when Clegg, an FBI hostage negotiator, asked if he would be taken captive if he went to the farm to talk to the clan. "Well, are you a good cook?" Mrs. Singer asked. The statement drew laughter and smiles from the jury and spectators.

Mrs. Singer, 44, covered her face with her hands and giggled. The courtroom fell silent when she spoke of the pain the family endured at the hands of neighbors and officials, whom she blames for the 1979 slaying of her husband, polygamist John Singer, and for allegedly trying to drive the family away by diverting a stream from their farm.

"You can't imagine what I've gone through.

You don't know the letters. You don't know the pains. You don't know the things we've gone through forever and to brick walls to people that can't hear," Mrs. Singer told Clegg. The conversation with Mrs.

Singer occurred an hour after a 19-minute telephone conversation between Clegg and Addam Swapp, 27, who accidentally contacted authorities at their command post in the bombed church's parking lot, Clegg testified.

The case was heard Thursday. "In some large, unabridged dictionary, one of the last definitions is to break wind," Brewster said. But that meaning is so obscure that it wouldn't offend anyone, he said. Webster's New World Dictionary defines petard as a metal cone filled with explosives used in ancient warfare to blow a hole in a wall or gate, or a firecracker. The reference notes the word's derivation from a French root meaning to break wind or bounce.

And it lists the idiom "hoist with one's own petard," meaning to be destroyed by the very devices meant to destroy others, was used by Shakespeare in Hamlet.

"I think it's kind of silly," said Bill Brewster, a heavy equipment salesman from Shady Cove. "It's not offensive to anybody and it's wasting a lot oftime." The dispute stems from a state law that prohibits license plates that carry "words or connotations that are sexual, vulgar or that relate to excretory functions or intimate body parts."

The license plate carries the word PETARD.

"In the French language, PETARD has a connotation that falls into the description quoted above," said the letter from William Seely, a manager at the Motor Vehicles Division.
