M a n s d a v e n s, the last name. (Pause.) The first (gesturing) T a n z. 1487, 1535, dying in Turkey. Three children and a wife who was German. The personality then irresponsible but full of gaiety, with some effeminate characteristics from an earlier 9th century life. (Pause.) A tendency then to run from problems, and a fear of settling in one place.

He was carried along somehow in a national rebellion; a minor character in this, following soldiers, seeking for the scores of ballads.

(John Bradley was recently on a business trip to Chicago. The meeting of the five refers to a group of five executives of Searle Drug, John’s employer.

The music ability was misused, and therefore is no longer dominant, you see.

You were separated from your wife for many years, and did not get along well. You resented her as you would have resented any woman. If you will forgive me, she was more a male than you were, in reality, and the Germans to you now still represent arrogant masculinity.

A follower of Hay Chi-Chu (my phonetic interpretation) who was a combination outcast-commander and merchant for the foreigners who lived in the mountains; an outpost to the northwest, where it snowed severely in the wintertime.

Your husband was a farmer.

(There was silence.) Such curiosity amazes me.

([Barbara:] “What was my first name in the Oklahoma life?”

Indeed. Do not blame me. I did not name you, perhaps you were bubbly. You left school in the sixth grade, but in your town you were considered fairly educated, you see. There was a Miss Thompson’s School for Girls. Taught by a maiden lady in her home.

A very bland response. It will not be ignored, but the response will be so bland that it will seem your communication was not understood.

There was a challenge involved, implied perhaps, and I assume it will not be taken up but it will be understood. It will be sidestepped. The reply will be polite in comparison. (Pause.) The man who receives it will understand it. A man to whom he shows it will not. No meeting will result as a direct result.

(Bill and Peggy Gallagher are on vacation in New York City this week and Seth was to give data concerning them during the session this evening. Jane now resumed at a slower pace, her eyes closed, at 10:20.)

There was a relationship existing between you and your friend, (pause) in the Oklahoma existence. He was your grandmother.
