If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

  • A Journey to George Scott King
    Fuel For A Future Reminisce: A Journey To George Scott King We still don’t have a blind in our bathroom. Religiously, every week, my girlfriend tapes a new piece of plain A4 paper to the window. In her imagination this works as a temporary blind, stopping the local perverts and sex pests from staring at her while she has a shower. I don’t know why she doesn’t tape up three pieces of A4 to com- pletely block out the window, or why we don’t get a blind. As I stood in the shower a few weeks ago, trying to hide behind the sheet of paper, I was struck by a thought, ‘If we lived by the sea, with no neighbours, we wouldn’t need a blind. Or a piece of paper’. This is my ‘escape fantasy’. Nothing new. I dream of leaving Lon- don a few times every week. I don’t just think about leaving either, I take my fantasy to new heights, I research it, I live it. I’m one of those people you see in seaside towns; one of the tossers who spends their whole weekend looking in estate agents’ windows, blocking the pavement while loudly discussing the relative merits of the Kent coastline, marveling at how many ‘sea glimpses’ you can buy for the price of a basement flat in Finsbury Park. After the shower I go and I sit at my desk. I type ESTATE AGENTS WHITSTABLE into Google. It’s always the same thought process: ‘We could sell this house and move to the seaside.

  • Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted / Gustavus Hindman Miller
    Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted By Gustavus Hindman Miller Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted - G.H.Miller PREFACE. "Dreams are rudiments of the great state to come.We dream what is about to happen.''--BAILEY, The Bible, as well as other great books of historical andrevealed religion, shows traces of a general and substantialbelief in dreams. Plato, Goethe, Shakespeare and Napoleonassigned to certain dreams prophetic value. Joseph saweleven stars of the Zodiac bow to himself, the twelfth star.The famine of Egypt was revealed by a vision of fat and lean cattle.The parents of Christ were warned of the cruel edict of Herod,and fled with the Divine Child into Egypt. Pilate's wife, through the influence of a dream, advised her husbandto have nothing to do with the conviction of Christ. But the grossmaterialism of the day laughed at dreams, as it echoed the voice andverdict of the multitude, "Crucify the Spirit, but let the flesh live.''Barabbas, the robber, was set at liberty. Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted - G.H.Miller The ultimatum of all human decrees and wisdom is to gratifythe passions of the flesh at the expense of the spirit.The prophets and those who have stood nearest the fountainof universal knowledge used dreams with more frequency thanany other mode of divination. Profane, as well as sacred, history is threaded with incidentsof dream prophecy. Ancient history relates that Gennadiuswas convinced of the immortality of his soul by conversingwith an apparition in his dream. Through the dream of Cecilia Metella, the wife of a Consul, the Roman Senatewas induced to order the temple of Juno Sospita rebuilt.
