“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Lorraine Shafer and Bill and Peggy Gallagher were witnesses for the session. Lorraine has witnessed the 144th and 162nd sessions, the Gallaghers the 158th, 161st and 162nd sessions.

(Break at 9:30. Jane was fairly well dissociated. Her voice had acquired a strong edge and had been fairly loud. Concerning her accent, which I have called a brogue, Lorraine and Bill Gallagher said they thought of it as a cultivated, well-educated accent acquired perhaps by one who had spent some time in Ireland, for instance, then moved on to live in another country—England, for instance.

You can also be of aid, both of you, as far as your brother Bill is concerned, Joseph, and I suggest that you take steps to speak with him, and if necessary we will hold a session, if the circumstances are correct for our purposes.

(The discussion was sparked because of Seth/Jane’s pronunciation of the words “fate” and “stock” in particular, and others similar. Bill and Lorraine did not believe the accent to be Irish, even considering Jane’s early years in an Irish neighborhood and her association with Irish priests.

(Bill Gallagher knows something about languages. He made so many good points that I asked him to write them down for the record. He had just begun when Seth came through again, loud and clear. Jane’s voice was strong but not close to matching the rather spectacular 158th session, for example. It was obvious that she and Seth enjoyed the proceedings immensely. She spoke rapidly and used many gestures, but her eyes remained closed throughout. Resume at 10:44.)

(Bill Gallagher’s head went back in a soundless laugh.)

(End at 10:55. Jane was well dissociated. She took quite a few moments to open her eyes. She said a word Bill had used had started her off again, to her own surprise. Bill said Seth used the Jesuit simile to make his point very well. He also said his ulcer had been much improved lately; it had bothered him a little earlier today, for instance, but hardly at all this evening.
