(At 7:50 Jim Beckett arrived to be a witness. He brought a friend, Jim Tennant, a research technician in spectroscopic measurements and tabulating data, for Corning Glass, which is near Elmira. Both Jims are about 25 years old, both have abilities in electronics, both are ham radio operators.

I am pleased that Roarck came for a regular session, and also that he brought with him a friend, who has been a friend of his, though not of mine, on countless instances.

This relationship has gone on through three successive lives as far as Roarck and his friend is concerned. I have not known him, nor have you, Joseph. He was involved in the Inquisition period, and also like Roarck still has remnants of old rigidities.

The bounds amount to bonds in some cases. He is given to fervent allegiances, and often should listen to the dictates of inner discipline. The cruelty which he inflicted upon others during the period of the Inquisition was inflicted with the most pure of purposes. He believed firmly that he was following the dictates of God. More cruelties have been effected by principled men than unprincipled men would ever dream.

The personality has endeavored to right old wrongs, and has succeeded to a great degree, but at the risk of sacrificing inner spontaneity, and even at the risk of losing the very authoritative aspects of his nature, so that there is still a tendency to follow rather than to lead; simply because in the period of the Inquisition he was in a place of authority, he led; and he led men into atrocities committed in the fine name of principle and religion. For this reason, while he is still tempted to lead, he allows himself to lead only in small ways, not trusting yet the judgment which at one time betrayed him.

Roarck knew him well during the period of the Inquisition, and again in an immediately-past life in the Midwest of your country, as well as in one other existence. Nevertheless, I welcome your new friend to the sessions, and he is one of those of whom I have spoken earlier.

The name of the relative is Ruth. I presume the name makes sense to you. Ruburt loves to block such personal data. However, I see that he let it come through undistorted. Bravo, Ruburt. I could hope that this would continue.

(Seth stated that Jim Tennant is one of the group he expects to gather around Jane and me. Jim T. reported that this afternoon, upon being invited to attend a session by Jim B., he felt his scalp distinctly crawl on three separate occasions; lifting up as though it would detach itself. Jim T. stated that his mother is quite clairvoyant, that often when he is ill, for instance, she will get in touch with him before he has time to inform her of his illness.

(Break at 9:55. Jane was fully dissociated. Jim Beckett stated that midway through the monologue, he felt the presence of Bill Macdonnel so strongly that he expected to see Bill walk in the door. However Bill did not appear throughout the evening. It will be remembered that Jim B. and Bill were witnesses to the 47th session. That was the first time they had met, although Seth stated they had known each other in previous lives.
