He lost his own wife, and was left with a highly neurotic and completely crippled daughter, for whom he cared for many years. The woman’s name as a man (pause) was Nicolo Vanguardi (my phonetic interpretation) and the daughter’s name was Rosalina. He resented the girl, and while he cared for her he did not do so kindly.
He wanted to remarry. No one would have him because of his daughter. The girl, when she could, defied him. (Long pause.) She was a rather handsome-looking young woman, though not of stable temperament, crippled but not deformed.
When she was 33 she was more youthful appearing than women much younger who were forced to work in the fields. They had a very small farm, and itinerant help. A widowed man with no children, from a nearby village, came here to help on the farm. He fell in love with the daughter, and despite her condition, took her to his home village.
The father was thoroughly embittered. The daughter had left too late; he was too old. No one would have him. He had no one now to talk to, and he hated his daughter the more, and railed that she had forsaken him in his old age, after he had cared for her through the long years.

In this existence however the personality of its own free will chose to understand in a different context, and work out problems faced so poorly in the earlier life. This time the personality is John’s wife, being cared for, you see, rather than caring for; being physically dependent. The personality could not and would not, out of fear, try to understand the circumstances and position of the crippled daughter. Not for a moment could he then bear to contemplate the inner reality in personal terms.
This time he plays that part and is completely immersed in it. There are connections. (Long pause.) John was the man with whom the daughter left. (Pause.) Now. (Pause.) John’s wife loves him, and has been made subconsciously to see the good points in his personality. In the past he hated the man who took away the daughter.

The daughter, the original daughter, you see, is now Peg’s mother. No one else from that life is known to them, though the original family was a large one. (Pause.) There is an historical connection with the village, or close area nearby; and not too far away a fort, a Roman fort, within fifty miles I believe of the town.
