“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(It seems reasonable to describe a stay in the hospital as “a turbulent event, or unpleasantness,” and as “A disturbance again, and a storm; whether or not this storm is physical I do not know.” We of course realize there might be other connections in the private life of the patient, Miss Margaret M. Bunn. Lorraine does not know Miss Bunn. It is possible the hospital records contain more on Miss Bunn that would be revealing here, but I did not ask Lorraine to try to check.

(“Blue saucer” rings no bells, or “winter,” or “an event I believe occurring approximately 1947.” “An event of 1965” can apply, since Miss Bunn was admitted to the hospital on June 7,1965.

(“A miscellany of objects, designs that appear like numbers,” is we think a reference to the words and numbers on the pass. “A connection with a family record; as a page, for example, from a book,” is a hit. The visitor’s pass contains a number code referring to Miss Bunn’s hospital record, Lorraine tells us; and the pass is like a page from a book, in that such passes are kept in spiral books at the hospital.

(The numbers “Four seven” are on the pass, and also “four numbers, I believe in a row,” if you want to isolate this many from longer groups. On the last line of the data on Miss Bunn some numbers are barely legible; we can see the impression of four numbers in a row here also.

(I would like to add a curious note. Note that Miss Bunn lives on Wellsboro St. in Mansfield, PA. Mansfield is a college town about seventy miles distant. I was born there. In addition, my father was born in Wellsboro PA., a small town perhaps twenty miles beyond Mansfield. As far as I know Lorraine Shafer doesn’t know of my family connections with Mansfield and Wellsboro. She also told us she merely picked the test object out of a group, without paying particular attention to it.

When we have time I have some remarks, or will have, concerning your Miss Callahan; and also some remarks concerning Ruburt’s business matters. For now however I wish you good evening.

(Miss Callahan is an elderly retired school teacher who lives in the front apartment.Her memory has been affected by a series of small strokes. Seth has considered her in earlier sessions, and she was also the subject of some of Jane’s first recorded clairvoyant dreams. These took place at the beginning of Miss Callahan’s illness. Seth discussed the progress of her troubles for a while in succeeding sessions, apparently accurately. Jane is still very solicitous for Miss Callahan’s welfare.

(In addition, Miss Callahan is the only person we have located who taught Frank Watts’ children in grade and high school; Frank Watts was the first personality Jane contacted in these sessions and was soon replaced by Seth. According to Seth Frank Watts had a high regard for Miss Callahan as a person and as a teacher. Miss Callahan however, cannot remember Frank Watts; only that she taught some “Watts children”. See Volume 1 for Callahan and Watts material.)
