ABSTRACT
I believe that I have pruned the flowering crab apple tree which stands in the center of the lawn. This belief is apparently grounded in my memory. When I look at the tree and notice its shape, it often occurs to me that I have pruned it. When this does occur to me, I have a sense of already believing it. The proposition that I have pruned the tree does not seem to be a discovery or a result of inference or a bit of wishful thinking, but rather something I have had in mind before and now believe with some conviction.
