“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane’s voice was somewhat stronger and more forceful than usual, and quite serious.)

(Now Jane, as Seth, pointed to Bonnie.) One I have known vaguely in my own past. However, you would not recognize me now, though I do indeed remember you. Now, you would not know yourself, for you were a small boy of three to four years old when I knew you, and I did not know you well. This was in Denmark, and your father was a baker. You had indeed a very short life, dying at nine or ten, of diphtheria. You see, you are older than you knew you were.

(9:52. Jane came out of trance. The last lines above referred to a discussion Jane and I had earlier in the day.

(Bonnie Anderson now told us that for many years she has had a fear of diphtheria, strange as it seems. At break Lillian commented that she thought Jane’s delivery as Seth sounded Germanic. She also said that when speaking as Seth, Jane tended to use the same gestures and facial wrinkles shown in the portrait I have painted of Seth.

(Jane, as Seth, again pointed to Lillian.) His daughter then marrying a man called Lines, a merchant. Difficulties in the left leg from an old wound. Also difficulties with the right ear and teeth. An overreliance upon emotionalism then, and a headstrong attitude, little given to reason. This time an effort being made to right those characteristics.

(Here Seth refers to a discussion during break, concerning some of the previous data; I cannot now pinpoint what was questioned. Jane thinks the O may refer to the name Rakes. One of the witnesses may remember and a space is left below for any notes.)

Manupelt. (Again my phonetic interpretation. Jane as Seth repeated the word.)

(End at 10:55. Jane, as Seth, had delivered the last material, on time, rapidly and in an impassioned manner.
