Henry Labestar (**phonetic) who I believe is now living in Saskatoon. Uhhh he would be an old man now. He was there with us uhhh writing at, at the time I think and living in, in, uhhh in uhhh Cyprus Hills uhmmm and after one séance after the Patrick Lane séance where he fell to the floor and had to be revived he went back to his bedroom uhhh at, at the San, at this residence we had these big porches where Tubercular patients would be sitting uhhh to, to take in as much uhhh healthy uhhh cool night air as possible and, but we had a room in behind each porch and there’d be two beds. And uhmmm Henry went to his room, went to the usual bed, undressed, started to fall asleep when he became aware of uhhh a presence in the room and he opened his eyes and there was a crone and she was sitting hunched over him, very close and she said to him “are you warm enough?” Well he got outta that room, he grabbed his blanket and ran outta the room, went back to the fireplace, nobody else was around cause we’d gone to bed and he set two chairs up by the fire. Threw some logs on the fire, put the blanket over him and he would never, ever go back into his room again. Unless it was day time and he just wanted to grab a book and run out. So for the last week he slept by the fireplace in two chairs.
