“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“Something misplaced.” Leonard Yaudes, the author of the object, has recently lost a pair of garden shears. Jane subjectively feels this is the correct interpretation. I wondered if it might not refer to our search for the greeting card, described on page 327. Jane might have had subconscious knowledge that the card was lost. She was well aware that she was giving data concerning this card. I did not think of this possibility at the time and so did not ask Seth.

(“A very distant connection with a foreign land and a person. A woman. A Butts, I believe.” This is another example growing out of my mother’s connection with the object. The key is a mention of a Butts. Jane said that when giving the data she knew she meant the A as an initial A, standing for Alice Butts. I of course did not know this. Alice Butts is a retired cousin of my mother’s whom my mother admires very much. Alice served in Korea as a missionary for many years. In addition, Leonard Yaudes, author of the envelope object, knows Alice Butts.

(“I N C again, and perhaps 1418.” This is interesting data. No I N C appears on the greeting card, although a company logo and address does on the back. However I N C did appear on the envelope used in the last experiment, the 66th. That was a postcard, and this evening’s object is a greeting card. In addition, both are related to Leonard Yaudes; who sent us the postcard, and who authored tonight’s object. The connection being Leonard, and the fact that Jane picked up Leonard’s involvement in both experiments.

(In reference to the Apples data above, I should add that an apple tree in the backyard of our place here in Elmira can also furnish connections. Leonard Yaudes, the author of the envelope object, irritated Jane somewhat in July by cutting some of the limbs from this tree. He also talked of cutting the tree itself down, and Jane asked him not to.

(“Something favorite, or favored, here. Some one favored.” Jane said she was subjectively sure this was another reference to my mother, who caused Leonard to author the object. Me being my mother’s favorite son.
