“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The 68th envelope object was a poem Jane wrote to me on the evening of July 3,1966. It was written with a dark pen on a sheet of yellow paper, not punched, and the size of this page. The sheet was folded as indicated above, then enclosed between the usual two pieces of Bristol and inserted into the usual double envelopes. The back side of the sheet was blank. I knew nothing of the circumstances under which Jane wrote the poem, and hoped the data would fill me in. Details in their proper place.

(Jim lives out of town and is now a traveling repairman for office equipment. He has witnessed a few sessions, perhaps two years ago. Today he told us that as he drove within about four blocks of our house, he received the strong urge to visit us.)

Stirrup. No, something stirred up. Twelve, or one, two.

(Pause.) Two women perhaps and a man. One of the women in the background. However others are involved also. 37 here and a magistrate connection.

(“Twelve, or one, two.” Jane said this was Seth’s way of leading her, by counting, to the next data, referring to three people.

(In addition, within the past month we have received an announcement of the forthcoming marriage of another D’Andreano, Louie, also in Rochester. We have been invited. Louie witnessed a session a couple of year ago, and was interested in this material for some time. This new wedding, we think, freshens the D’Andreano association. We think there is also another association involving this data—the fact that the two Dicks were involved—Dick in the backyard, and my own brother Dick in Rochester.

(“The words ‘A fine form of a woman’.” Jane says this is a clear-enough reference to a remark Dick made when the group of three was sitting in the yard with their drinks, on the evening Jane wrote the poem used as object. Barbara asked Dick why he shouldn’t get married. Dick replied there was no reason he should, since he now sat with “two fine women,” both of them good looking; or words to that effect.

(3rd Question: Who are the three people involved? “Two women perhaps and a man. One of the woman in the background.” As stated on page 6, three people, two women and a man, were involved in the circumstances surrounding the creation of the poem used as object, on the evening of July 3,1966: Jane, Barbara and Dick. In this context it would seem that Barbara would be the woman in the background, since the actual envelope object was an item of Jane’s. Other interpretations could reverse this order however. We could wish the data were clearer.
