[... 72 paragraphs ...]

(See the article indicated to the upper left on page 12 of the full sheet, page 153. The article concerns the efforts of a priest to build a seminary in Portugal. The priest’s order, the Dominicans, had been expelled from Portugal in 1834, and was readmitted in 1940.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

(“Connection with a monstrosity, as of a monstrous building, perhaps old Victorian. The first impression was of monstrosity, the rest is interpretation.” See the article indicated to the upper left on page 11 of the full sheet from which the object was torn, page 152. This concerns the prison population of Portugal’s prisons, and the prison system itself. Discussed in the article is the building of a network of modern establishments, to “replace a few big antiquated prisons,” etc. Other references include such phrases as “prisons were of very low standard,” etc.

(There can also be a connection with monstrosity and the general idea of crime, perhaps, which is discussed at length in the article.

[... 2 paragraphs ...]

(“A mission with unforeseen consequences.” The article on page 12 of the newspaper, dealing with the Dominican seminary in Portugal, has to do with the journey to the United States each year of a priest, Rev. Fernandes, on a fund-raising mission. The subtitle of the article also reads: “Project in Portugal Aided by Funds Raised in U.S.”.

(“Connection with something green as a meadow.” The same article describes in some detail how the Dominican order in Portugal now has converted an old farm into a new seminary, which is “largely self-supporting, having its own kitchen, laundry, reservoir, farm, fruit and vegetable garden, and vineyards,” etc.

(In the large ad to the right of the article on page 12 is a reference to mint green sheets, in rather heavy type, also.

[... 4 paragraphs ...]

(Perhaps the view reference in gray view refers to a short article on the page 11 side of the full page, in column one. It concerns an eye bank in Ceylon to aid South Vietnamese civilians. Could gray view refer to clouded vision, dim color perception? See page 152.

[... 5 paragraphs ...]

(“Connection with a disturbance”, is, Jane said, a possible reference to the article on the prison system in Portugal, in column one on page 11 of the full page. Many statistics are given in the article, dealing with various types of crime, etc., as well as the new prison system that is replacing the old buildings, etc.

[... 2 paragraphs ...]

(“ Illia. I do not know to what this refers.” Illia is my interpretation of what Jane said, with some emphasis. The only word remotely approaching this is Aldeia Nova, meaning New Village, and is found in the article on page 12 of the full sheet, dealing with the Dominican Seminary in Portugal. See page 153.

[... 8 paragraphs ...]

(“One nine four three.” The year date, 1943, is mentioned in the article on the Dominican Seminary, on page 12 of the full sheet from which the object was torn: It was started in 1943, three years after the Dominican Order was readmitted, etc.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

(“An inadequate performance.” Jane said she thought this a reference to the article on prisons of Portugal, in column one of page 11 of the full sheet. The article presents some of the history of Portuguese prisons, mentioning their past low standards, overcrowding, etc.

(“And something to do with a name. And some word like January or Januarious.” This is good subjective data to Jane, and refers to the article on the Dominican Seminary on page 12 of the full sheet. Jane is well informed regarding religious matters. As a Catholic youngster, she had a teacher named Sister Januarious in grade school. She still remembers the sister quite well, for she made a good impression.

(Jane and I wonder about the coincidence involved in my selecting, by the blind method on page 158, a newspaper page that features an article about religion, and the Catholic religion at that. See page 153. Religion is one of Jane’s strong points.

(“Something like a toy that is misplaced.” This could imply something lost, and toy could imply a gift or children perhaps. We speculate whether this data refers to the short article about the Ceylon eye bank, in column one on page 11 of the full sheet, from which the object was torn. See page 152.

(The article states that a gift of eyes for cornea grafts… for South Vietnamese civilians, mostly children… with no discrimination… and some Viet Cong… would be made. Can there be a connection between misplaced and the fear of discrimination as detailed in the article?

[... 3 paragraphs ...]

(“1731.” No connections. The earliest year date on either page 11 or 12 is 1834, in the article on the Dominican Seminary, page 12. There is a $15.96 price given for one of the coats shown on page 11.

(“An actual replica, or something happening all over again, as a commemoration.” This is good data, and refers to the Dominican Seminary article on page 12. Among other things the article describes how the seminary leader, Father Fernandes, will organize a pilgrimage of Americans to Fatima in May 1967. The group will also assist at the inauguration of a chapel at the seminary at Aldeia Nova, which will be finished early next year. The article then states: The date happens to coincide with 50th anniversary celebrations at Fatima, when the Pope may possibly preside.

[... 6 paragraphs ...]

(“And a child.” As stated before, children are mentioned in the Ceylon eye bank article in column one on page 11, of the full page from which the item was taken. See page 152. Quote from the article: the ophthalmologist … said the recipients would be… Vietnamese civilians, mostly children, etc.

(Jane speculated that the mention of Christmas, just below this article on page 11, in connection with a Christmas job at Macy’s, might have given rise to the associative child data.

(1961. No connections. There are various recent and old year dates mentioned in the news articles on both pages 11 and 12 of the newspaper, but not 1961. Nor are there any $19.61 prices on any advertised items, or sizes of that figure, on either the item itself or the full page.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

(Omitted earlier, after the Illia data: “And perhaps an F and R.” We can find F and R references on both the object and the page from which it was torn, without knowing if any of these would be correct. These would include phone letters, personal names, etc. In the article on the Dominican Seminary alone we find: Father Fernandes; Fatima; St. Francis Xavier; Padre Abel Faria, etc.
