(The 42nd envelope experiment was held during the session. See the tracing on page 29. The object is the insurance receipt for the tape of the 170th session, which was sent to Dr. Instream on July 23,1965. The tape was made with the Gallaghers as witnesses, at their home outside Elmira, NY, on July 19,1965.

(See the tracing of the envelope object on page 29. As stated, it is the insurance receipt for the tape of the 170th session, made on July 19,1965 at the home of the Gallaghers, with them as witnesses. The receipt is handstamped July 23,1965, the day the tape was mailed to Dr. Instream.

(The receipt is rectangular in shape; in connection with this shape, Jane said she had an image within, of a whitish color. It was rectangular and of the approximate proportion of the object. She was aware of black lines upon it. She saw it standing on a narrow end. This is quite possible, since I noticed during the experiment that she held the sealed envelope at various angles. Remember also that she gave white in connection with the object’s color, in answer to my second question. The receipt is green.

(“Elmira, NY, connected with this copy.” Elmira, NY, is included in the handstamp on the receipt. This data would indicate then that while Jane held the envelope “this copy”, including the handstamp, was on the underside.

(“A date connected with it.” The handstamp on the receipt bears a date.

(“Black, rather clear lines, one on top, bottom, and two sides. Vertical, that is, vertical lines, on the top and bottom, and horizontal on the sides.” The insurance receipt contains clear black printed lines, both horizontal and vertical on the front, and horizontal only on the back. As stated, Jane changed the position of the envelope frequently while she was giving the data. Thus lines that were vertical at one time would become horizontal, and it seems this would apply whether in relation to her as the clairvoyant observer, or the floor or whatever. I also wonder if some of this data might refer to the black lines formed by the printed matter on the object, and its neat-appearing edges, top, sides and bottom.

(“A white border, with uneven edges, or slightly scrolled edges.” In giving this data Jane emphasized un. See the tracing of the object on page 29. The top and bottom edges of the object are serrated or perforated; several receipts are contained on one page in the book at the post office, and are torn off as used. The sides of the object are straight.
