“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

A great variety, or overall picture. An arrangement that has similarity to a calendar page. A small calendar page.

(See page 216. The object was a memo slip from the Jewish Community Center in Elmira; from the desk of Gladys H. Austin, secretary to the Center’s director, Mr. Miller. It is printed in a dark chocolate brown on rather bright orange brown paper. It was folded once horizontally in the double envelopes, as indicated, although there were also vertical fold marks in it.

(“A capital G.” See the copy of the object on page 216. The name Gladys H. Austin is seen in the upper right-hand corner of the memo slip; in capitals.

(“A note and a sender who is not feeling well.” This is very good data. The note refers to the memo page used as object. It was written by Gladys Austin on November 8, at a time when she was not feeling well. She described this to Jane in some detail, explaining that the JCC had been so busy recently that the staff had been working weekends also. Jane remembers that Gladys also worked the weekend following—November 12-13, and then took Monday, November 14, off because of fatigue.

(“A mid-thirty connection here, or three five perhaps.” See page 216. Mrs. [Nancy] Methinitus, whose name appears on the object, is in her thirties, and quite possibly 35 years old. Gladys Austin is about 45 according to Jane.

(“An arrangement that has similarity to a calendar page. A small calendar page.” Subconscious memory evidently plays a part here. Jane said the memo page used as object is much like ones she saw when she worked for an art gallery a few years ago. It was a book arrangement, with a calendar on one side and the memo pages opposite. She thought at first that the object might also come from such an arrangement; upon close examination, however, we can only tell that the object came from a pad that was bound at the top of the page; the edge there is slightly roughened, as though torn loose.

(Thus also she has no idea of what size calendar page might be involved.

(“One large dark numeral or initials, towards the top, perhaps in a corner.” Excellent data. See page 216. The large capital M of the word memo is in the upper left corner of the object, printed in a dark chocolate brown.

(“Something with depth and dimension suggested—that is, the object. The feeling now, about the object, of something transparent, or that opens up without actually opening up.” As stated, the object was folded once upon insertion into the double envelopes. See page 216, and the indication of the horizontal fold used. The object also bore earlier crease marks from a vertical fold. The folding here could give rise to the transparent, depth and dimension, and opening-up data, etc.

(The calendar data would be another reference to the memo pad and calendar idea explained earlier. In a more literal interpretation, as explained Gladys Austin wrote the memo to Jane on November 8, with the specific intention that Jane would meet Nancy Methinitus on November 9. This she did. See page 216.

(2nd Question: Can you elaborate on the capital G? “No. Ruburt now thinks of Grumbacher.” See the data on page 221. It is stated there that the capital G refers to the name on the memo pad used as object, Gladys H. Austin, etc.

(The Grumbacher data can also apply, in that Grumbacher is the manufacturer of some of the art supplies Jane picked up for class one day when being given a ride by Nancy Methinitus, whose name is also on the object. See pages 216 and 224; the unforeseen circumstance and three-dollars data.

(4th Question: What material is the object made of? “Paper, but with a fabric feel.” The object is of paper. See page 216. It is a smooth paper however, and we don’t know where the fabric idea came from.

(6th Question: Can you say a little something about the group accomplishment? “Just that my impression is of heads, and four of them, in silhouette.” This reply makes the data on page 225 a little clearer, although we believe the more general idea on page 225 applies as legitimately as the above.

(This data was obtained on December 12, 1966. The head silhouette idea wasn’t carried out however by December 21, the last class before Christmas vacation. Again, the connection is a good one, in that the data has to do with the class referred to through the memo slip used as object. See page 216.
