(I had prepared the usual double test envelope earlier in the day, but doubted it would be used if Jane was not in a good mood for the session. This time I cemented a collection of used U.S. postage stamps, still on original paper, to a folded piece of white paper. See my tracing on page 250. I sandwiched this paper between two pieces of bristol board to prevent identification by touch, and slipped the assemblage into the usual two envelopes.

(From the sketch on page 250 it can be seen that parallel lines, both horizontal and tall, or vertical, are present; these are the customary wavy lines of cancellation. See stamps numbered 1, 2, and 3 on the sketch. On the envelope paper beneath stamp #2 is a green printed box of the type used for prepaid mail, but I do not know if this is what Seth means by “lines on the other side.” This could also refer to the letters the stamps once serviced.

(Herbert Hoover, the Mayo brothers, Susan B. Anthony and Robert E. Lee appear on some of the stamps; I suppose any of these could be connected with “something splendid.” Stamp #2 depicts a scene in Kansas. Seth mentioned two or three people; the stamps depict a total of nine people, plus two hands on the special delivery stamp. Are these hands “something that only partially appears?” The same thing could be said about any bust depicted.

(No water scene appears specifically on any stamp, or a child. Men and women are shown. As far as I can tell no portion of an address shows, or a tavern or place of refreshment. Nor do we know what to make of “someone stubborn,” unless this was a personality trait of one of the people depicted on the stamps. I could speculate that Jane’s constant nagging at herself to begin another project was stubborn, in that she refused to relax. This is hardly the kind of test data we seek however. 3 6 is Jane’s age, but we discount this also.
