rences in other regions should be as frequent as in France. The in- 

 dication is that there may be quasi-permanent undulations in the 

 Super-Sargasso Sea, or a pronounced inclination toward France 



Inspiration: 



That there may be a nearby world complementary to this world, 

 where autumn occurs at the time that is springtime here. 



Let some disciple have that. 



But there may be a dip toward France, so that leaves that are 

 borne high there, are more likely to be held in suspension than high- 

 flying leaves elsewhere. Some other time I shall take up Super- 

 geography, and be guilty of charts. I think, now, that the Super- 

 Sargasso Sea is an oblique belt, with changing ramifications, over 

 Great Britain, France, Italy, and on to India. Relatively to the 

 United States I am not very clear, but think especially of the South- 

 ern States. 



The preponderance of our data indicates frigid regions aloft. 

 Nevertheless such phenomena as putrefaction have occurred often 

 enough to make super-tropical regions, also, acceptable. We shall 

 have one more datum upon the Super-Sargasso Sea. It seems to me 

 that, by this time, our requirements of support and reenforcement 

 and agreement have been quite as rigorous for acceptance as ever 

 for belief: at least for full acceptance. By virtue of mere accept- 

 ance, we may, in some later book, deny the Super-Sargasso Sea, and 

 find that our data relate to some other complementary world instead 

 or the moon and have abundant data for accepting that the 

 moon is not more than twenty or thirty miles away. However, the 

 Super-Sargasso Sea functions very well as a nucleus around which 

 to gather data that oppose Exclusionism. That is our main motive: 

 to oppose Exclusionism. 



Or our agreement with cosmic processes. The climax of our 

 general expression upon the Super-Sargasso Sea. Coincidentally 

 appears something else that may overthrow it later. 



Notes and Queries, 8 : i2-228: 



That in the province of Macerata, Italy (summer of 1897?) an 

 immense number of small, blood-colored clouds covered the sky. 

 About an hour later a storm broke, and myriad seeds fell to the 

 ground. It is said that they were identified as products of a tree 

 found only in Central Africa and the Antilles. 



If in terms of conventional reasoning these seeds had been 

 high in the air, they had been in a cold region. But it is our accept-
