“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(See the tracings of the object on page 16. The object was a postcard mailed to us by Barbara Ingold from Ft. Belvoir, VA, on July 12,1966. It is of a display called Story Book Land at Woodbridge, VA, and shows Mother Goose. Barbara lives in the downstairs apartment, beneath us.

(It may be possible that this connection is reinforced by a postcard as envelope object in the 67th experiment, in the 279th session for August 15. That card was sent to us by Leonard Yaudes, who also lives in the apartment house. See Volume 6.

(“With, now… my impression here is of a desk, or chair connected with a desk. The type used in classrooms. I do not know if this refers to a child who attends school, to a teacher, or to someone such as your friends downstairs who have such an object.” There are plenty of connections here, though some are roundabout. Merle and Lois Cratsley also live in the apartment house, on the first floor, and do own such a chair. Their apartment adjoins Barbara, and they are of course well acquainted. The Cratsleys have no children but Barbara does have one, a girl nine years old. Later note by RFB: Mother Goose is a child’s tale. The place referred to as Story Land.

(“Also a connection with September.” This is a reference to the fact that Jane talked with Barbara today, as she does on most days since Barbara lives in the same apartment house.

(2nd Question: Can you say who is involved? “Ruburt here thinks of his corn, and Lois.” Jane said this is brought about through the chair data, and is a confusion arising from the fact that Barbara, who sent us the object, and Lois and Merle Cratsley live on the ground floor of the apartment house, in adjoining apartments. See the chair data interpretation on page 22.

(4th Question: What’s that connection about a session? “Our sessions were discussed, or the item is closely connected to one used previously in our sessions.” See the interpretation of the session data on page 22. Tonight’s item, a postcard, is closely connected to one used previously as an envelope object. The object for the 67th experiment was also a postcard, used August 29 in the 281st session, and was sent to us by Leonard Yaudes, who also lives in our apartment house. Leonard and Barbara are of course friends also.
