Elmira, New York

[...] In the larger one, she was 41 years old when Rich Conz, a photographer for the Elmira Star-Gazette, took her picture in 1970, when she was in trance. [...]

In the 737th session, after 11:55, Seth mentioned the “other dentist” who lived and worked around the corner from the apartment house Jane and I moved into in 1960, upon our arrival in Elmira. [...] Several years ago our medical friend moved to a more residential area in Elmira — just where we didn’t know — but kept his offices in his original home. [...]

[...] Low-lying portions of Elmira were much damaged. [...]

(Merle did not know we were eating there, but did know we were in New York City, having been so informed by phone by his wife, with whom I work in Elmira. [...] Merle and his wife used to live in the apartment house we occupy in Elmira. [...]

At about 12:45 PM an officer from the West Elmira Police came to the back door. [...]

[...] During our drive back to Elmira this morning Jane said, “Somebody’s working on Seth’s book, I can tell you that. [...]

5. Gardner Road mentioned—no, incident on Chambers Road, however, this is in same area: both in Horseheads [?] [Rob: Watkins Glen north, Elmira south.]

(What did develop was that my boss at work, at 11:50 AM, called me on the phone–he happened to be at the company’s other plant on Elmira’s southside at the time–and asked me to put in more time on the job as a regular routine. [...]

[...] We had left Elmira on the morning of the 15th.

(Continuing the story of narcotics in Elmira as predicted by Seth in the 63rd session, June 17, 1964, there was published in the Elmira paper for Saturday, Aug. 29, the story of the arrest of an addict connected with the theft of a doctor’s bag and prescription blanks at an Elmira hospital parking lot. [...]

(It will be remembered that in the last, 63rd, session, pages 158-159, Seth stated that a narcotics scandal was to break in Elmira within 3 months. [...] Today, 6/24, 1964, an article appeared in the Elmira Star-Gazette detailing a narcotics trial taking place in Ithaca NY, perhaps 35 miles distant. An Elmira tavern is named, along with the fact that a New York City detective has given Elmira authorities the names of Elmirans for further investigation. [...]

(9:15.) The dream made its point, whether or not you read the article that later appeared (in the Elmira paper). [...]

[...] That the house had long been sold, that my parents had died in the early 1970s, and that Jane and I had been married for 26 years and lived in Elmira, New York, were irrelevant in the dream. [...]

[...] On a summer evening after dusk in the dream, I went for a walk with Floyd Waterman (I’ll call him), a ‘real’ friend from Elmira who was visiting me. [...]

[...] It bore no similarity to those in Sayre, or on Foster Avenue in Elmira. [...] The house faced the south; before it in the valley lay Elmira itself; almost hidden by trees; beyond the city the hills rose in tiers. [...]

(One of the first houses Jane and I looked at yesterday occupied a hill side corner lot in West Elmira, on a street we’d never been on before. [...]

But first, the beautiful little house that Jane and I bought in 1975 sits near the top of a moderately steep hill at the western edge of Elmira. [...] (Eventually mail began to arrive addressed to us simply at “The Hill House, Elmira, N.Y.” [...]

[...] It’s late October 1985 as I begin this Preface for her Seth, Dreams and Projection of Consciousness. As I have informed many correspondents, Jane died at 2:08 A.M. on Wednesday, September 5, 1984, after spending 504 consecutive days in a hospital in Elmira, N. Y. I was with her when she died. [...]

[...] Both of us had jobs at the large hospital in my home town of Sayre, Pa., eighteen miles southeast of Elmira, N.Y. The setting and the buildings weren’t like those of the “real” hospital in Sayre, though. [...]

[...] The object is a strip from a piece of linen canvas which I bought a few weeks ago at the Art Shop, in Elmira. [...]

[...] Possibly a reference to the old brick building which houses the Art Shop, on Elmira’s West Water Street. [...]

[...] In Elmira the Art Shop is located on West Water Street, which parallels the Chemung River through the heart of the city. [...]

He purposely went to a store (Elmira Discount) where he would not find clothes.... [...]

[...] John heard the voice in a dancing establishment called The Elms, in Elmira Heights, which is a small town adjacent to Elmira. [...]

(The Elms is actually in Elmira Heights, which is like a suburb of Elmira to the northeast. [...]

[...] He drew a map of the location of the house in relation to The Elms, however; a copy of the map is included at the end of this session, and it can be seen that the house is in the northeastern section of Elmira Heights, as well as also being northeast of Elmira, and is west of the location of The Elms.

[...] He had changed jobs and left Elmira at the time we were interested in his house, in June 1964, however. Seth dealt with the purchase of this house in several sessions, saying it would be a good one for us psychically. [...]

[...] Jane and I have made a few sporadic attempts to learn more about Frank Watts; such a man did live in Elmira, we learned, through a resident who knew him. [...]

[...] Jane said she thought the last word of the data referred to the Birch house being located in the country outside Elmira, and not to be “the interior of a trailer.”

In one reality, of course, the work was finished at the Foster Avenue house (in Elmira, New York). In another it was finished in Sayre (Pennsylvania).

[...] (I wasn’t involved in the little scenario.) The Steffanses moved out of Elmira some months before we purchased the hill house through a real estate agency.

[...] Sue Watkins remains close (to both of us, by the way), even though she now lives in a small community that’s well over an hour’s travel north of Elmira. [...]

[...] This is the somewhat complicated sequence of events here: Marie Colucci took the train to her parents’ home in New Jersey, and drove her mother back to Elmira in the parental automobile. When Marie’s father died of a heart attack in NJ, Marie drove her mother back to Jersey in the parental car, then returned to Elmira herself by train.)

[...] On a visit to their home this summer we met Marie’s mother, in Elmira on a visit from New Jersey. [...]

(We thought this connection with “a trip by train” might be the distant connection referred to by Seth, when we remembered that while Marie Colucci’s mother had been visiting in Elmira, the mother’s husband died of a heart attack at home in New Jersey, while bowling. [...]
