fourth hand account (Professor > Rand > Barbra > Z. M. Davis)

(Unless you have significant reason to doubt my ability to transcribe a passage from a book verbatim, then I think this should only be "third-hand".)

I originally had it that way and changed it, since I thought it was technically incorrect and that bothered me. But I think you're right, the statement is less distracting when you are ignored, and you don't significantly lose information. I will edit it and change it.
