SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
INTRODUCTION
Hello, Dear Ones.
It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.
We have been talking about strange thoughts in the noosphere, and how very odd they are … and how unrelated to us as Lightworkers … and whether they have to do with Sympathetic Magic, or maybe Black Magic practices from this country or that.
We have not yet discussed Black Magic from the Philippines. Before we do that, I think it would be a good idea to go over some of the tools in my website “Awakening with Planet Earth” that you can use to rid yourself of upsetting, recurring threads of misqualified noospheric energy in the noosphere.
You will find a tab called “Contents” under “More” on your handheld. Or it may be easily visible on my home page if you are using a PC. That tab includes a long table of Contents from which I am about to offer some examples.
MY FAVORITES
Under the category “My Favorites” are many different subcategories. One interesting subcategory is “Prayers – blessings – mantras – chants – affirmations – white magic – by Alice.”
Those are new ways that I come up with that may allow you to counter the Dark, and to make your energy feel very Light. It might be prayers or blessings or mantras or chants or affirmations or White Magic by me.
By ‘White Magic’ I do not mean White Magic that fights the Dark. I mean White Magic that creates Light.
Redux: Misqualified Thought Forms
In the last video we were talking about some very odd thoughts that I cannot place anywhere. These thoughts sound to me like what animals think; for instance …
The thought of throwing urine into a victim’s yard,
Or throwing feces into their yard,
Or throwing feces at them,
Or poisoning the victim’s plants,
Or trespassing on their property and vandalizing their property,
Or poisoning things inside their house (the thought, not the action),
Or having your cat hunt on the victim’s property. Why is that so bad, I wonder?
Or throwing rats or rodents into the victim’s yard. Why is that considered so bad? Why do I in fact think of it as being a very bad thing?
The notion of acting out rape on another person and visualizing that you are raping the victim;
All kinds of curses, like …
curses that the victim should fall down,
curses that the victim should fall ill,
and so on.
The notion of sending one’s Spirit (which I think of as the astral body) into the victim’s home to inflict harm on the victim’s wife or children,
Or of sending one’s Spirit into a pet of the victim or into a wild animal, and having that animal inflict harm on the victim.
I think that will do for now in terms of misqualified energy. We talked about this last time too.
FERAL DRIVES – PACK INSTINCTS
There is a category that I have in “Awakening with Planet Earth” that might help explain this. The category is “Feral drives – pack instincts.”
At one time, years ago, I found myself channeling all kinds of things about feral drives and pack instincts … mainly without research. It just came to me. But there were also some field trips to zoos in early morning hours in San Diego many, many years ago; and also reading I did about Jane Goodall and her work; and that of other researchers on primate behavior, which led me to an understanding of feral drives and pack instincts.
I think my writings on the topic “Feral drives – pack instincts” might help explain these very ‘out there’ thought forms that seem to be circulating through the noosphere.
‘Feral’ means ‘wild’. It might have to do with wild instincts, or pack instincts, that were the motivating factor for the behavior of primates before they became human beings. These might be very deep within ourselves. We might be liberating them. We might be transforming them to the Light, and to higher understanding, so that we no longer act them out.
I suggest reading the posts in the category “Feral drives – pack instincts.” That includes the subcategories on …
“Bonding,” “Competition,”
“Dominance – submission,” and
“Pack ordering.”
I think all those would be especially pertinent.
HEALTH – HEALING
Then there is my category “Contents: Health – healing.” In that category there is quite a bit. Among the available choices I suggest …
“Activations of Light and Invocations,”
“Languages of Light and Sound,” and
“Physical Regeneration.”
That is because these are relatively new methods of healing the physical body and maintaining personal health that have been conveyed or channeled by the Lightworkers for all humankind.
I will read them to you again …
“Activations of Light and Invocations,”
“Languages of Light and Sound,” and
“Physical Regeneration.”
These are in the larger category “Contents: Health – healing.”
HUMAN SPECIES AND INTERSPECIES AND EXTRATERRESTRIAL COMMUNICATION
The Importance of This Category
There is a category called “Contents: Human Species and Interspecies and Extraterrestrial Communication.” If, as a Lightworker, you would like to know whether animals have been grabbed by a Black Magic person and caused to attempt to inflict harm on you … spiritually, mentally, emotionally, or physically … then it might be good to know what the animals are saying to you.
In the category “Contents: Human Species and Interspecies and Extraterrestrial Communication,” there are many examples of what animals are speaking … transcriptions of what they are saying.
These transcriptions, along with the videos, allow you, as a human being, to develop the Ascension gift of Universal Translation. (For more on this see my blog category “Universal Translator from the Alpha Centauri star library.”)
Once you do that, you will know whether you need to do one of the Lightworker activities, such as Activations of Light, Invocations of Light, Languages of Light, or Languages of Sound, in order to heal yourself and prevent that from happening, so that you can arise above that and beyond that, to the greater Light.
Human Species Communication
It is our right, as Ascending human beings, to know the languages of all the beings of Earth, and of all the extraterrestrial beings … whether they be negative or positive extraterrestrial beings.
Once we see the Light, and hear the Light, and understand the Light, then we can have a positive effect on the Light. We have to understand what is happening in order to know that we rise beyond that through alignment with God or through the help of our Ascension team, or through change-up in the Dimensions and Timelines … whatever method we choose.
So we recognize when there is danger, and we turn to the Light. This category “Contents: Human Species and Interspecies and Extraterrestrial Communication” can do that for us. It can lay the groundwork for an understanding of where we are at this moment in this dual Universe … so that we maintain form; so that we stay healthy; so that we can do the work that we were sent here to do.
Also in that category is a discussion of “Subconscious and Unconscious Symbolism.” That category is for human beings, so that we can rise to an understanding of our subconscious and unconscious minds; so that we can move past that, to our higher minds; and so that we can avoid acting on the basis of things that we do not even know exist in our own energy fields.
Interspecies and Extraterrestrial Communication
Then as far as Interspecies Communication is concerned: A lot has been made of Negative Alien Beings. And a lot ought have been made of Positive Alien Beings … of Christed Alien Species without whose help we would not be here now.
There are, here on Earth, many beings … including reptiles and insects, among others … and including hostile micro-organisms, that work against our survival here on Earth. Everyone knows this.
Overlighting all those beings are Negative Alien Beings.
Negative Earth Animals. We all know to stay away from ants and termites and very aggressive bees and giant reptiles on foreign islands and venomous snakes and hungry mountain lions … and all the beings that threaten our survival on Earth.
When we stay away from those beings, we stay away from the influence of Negative Alien Beings. Do you see?
Nevertheless, it is very good to know the language of the hostile beings on Earth. In doing that, we also can counteract the overlighting Spirits of these beings, which are what popular literature calls ‘Aliens’ in a misguided attempt to use those Alien spirits to wage war against other human beings.
Negative Alien Beings. We human beings need to unite together to keep at bay the Negative Alien Beings which overlight the hostile beings … the predators that might prey upon humans. Here in the cities of Earth it is very easy to forget how many of these there are.
-It might be mold on barley.
– It might be infestations on our crops. It might be great flocks of grasshoppers that come down and eat our crops.
– It might be the great predators of the wild that will grab us if we find ourselves suddenly in the wilderness without support of what comes so easily to our aid in the cities.
– It might be the lack of medicine in rural locations, leading to our murder by hostile micro-organisms.
The idea that Negative Alien Beings will help us to fight other people is an irrelevant notion. The Negative Alien Beings are the forces destroy modern society … that destroy our lives … that destroy civilization.
THE LIGHTWORKER IDEAL OF PEACE ON EARTH
If we band together with other cultures that promote harmony in the world, then we will be doing a better job than if we were trying to fight other cultures.
If there are cultures that are overlit by these beings, then I can see that there might be a problem.
We as Lightworkers feel, not in fighting the Dark, but in increasing the Light. So the things that we do to increase our Light we feel will increase the Light of the World, and promote Peace and loving relationships between nations. We think these are more important than fighting.
On the other hand there are times … as everyone knows … when people must fight in order to preserve their own countries. We hope it will not come down to that. But instead, we hope that the things which people choose to watch, on their free time, on television, might promote a notion of Peace and inspiration for all the peoples of Earth, instead of casting Darkness into the noosphere.
It is hard to find that kind of viewing on television or in the movies. But the things that we choose to do … no matter how hard they are to find … might bring joy into our lives, and joy into our neighborhoods, and joy everywhere on Earth.
These are things that we can always choose to do.
You would be surprised how much our joy affects the joy of everyone everywhere … more so than self-defense. But here in this world and in these times, I admit that we must first set a state of survival for ourselves … and from there, move into joy.
MENTAL FILTERS
Now let’s go back to the categories you may find helpful …
There is a category called “Mental Filters.” I came up with this category to show how we come up with notions bubbling up from the subconscious mind, which then automatically influence our conscious behavior.
If you read a few of the Mental Filters described in that category, I think you will get an understanding of your own ‘jack-in=the=boxes’ that spring forth from your subconscious mind and suddenly cause you to act in a certain way.
That might then give you a chance to act rationally, where other people may not be acting rational, and not to be influenced by these weird snippets of information floating around in the noosphere.
MIND
Coming up next: The category “Contents: Mind.” In that category I suggest the subcategory “Mastery of Mind.” If you read that subcategory through, that will help, because we must master our own Minds in order not to be influenced by other people who want to master us.
We must stand with and for ourselves, in the Light of God, in order to prevent other people from tainting our energy field with Darkness. We have to have a notion what we are a stand-alone feature of our energy field.
We stand alone, with God. None other may injure us. Only God is there with us. He is there with us throughout this experience of this reality and this incarnation.
“Mastery of Mind.” That is the subcategory.
PHYSICS OF ASCENSION: ASTROGEOPHYSICS – DIMENSIONS – TIMELINES – MASTERY OF TIME AND SPACE
Then there is a section “Contents: Physics of Ascension: Astrogeophysics – Dimensions – Timelines – Mastery of Time and Space.” That whole section is extremely important to the Lightworker.
It is new information that is channeled by me … sometimes by others … sometimes we band together and channel things. Why not read that one through? Whatever strikes you as especially important.
PROTECTION – SANCTUARY – UPLIFTMENT
In terms of protecting ourselves from noospheric misqualified energy, there is a blog category called “Contents: Protection – sanctuary – upliftment.” This includes, for instance, meditations, prayers, prophecy, songs, and stories. All these will be helpful. These are for inspiration.
PSYCHOLOGY – PSYCHIATRY – SPIRITUAL COUNSELING
Then there is a blog category “Contents: Psychology – Psychiatry – Spiritual Counseling.” I vote for Spiritual Counseling. But others may like Psychology and Psychiatry. It is up to you. The category is there for you to peruse.
I think you will find many new things in it … things at which you may raise an eyebrow. These are tools available for free at my website.
TWO CONFLICTING TOPICS: SELF-HELP VERSUS HELP FROM OTHER PEOPLE
Reading again these two conflicting topics … or you might say, complementing each other: “Contents: Protection – sanctuary – upliftment.” That is one. “Contents: Psychology – Psychiatry – Spiritual Counseling.” That is another.
One is self-help. And the other is help from other people.
RELIGIONS OF THE WORLD
Just beneath that is the category “Contents: Religions of the World” … whatever religion appeals to you. I find interesting “Esoteric lore – occult mysteries – arcana.” That is because there are certain insights in that subcategory that supplement the world religions.
The thing about religion is that a lot of people think religion is the only answer.
But for the Lightworker a lot of the time religion is an impediment to bringing in the Light. That is because people often identify social values with religion. They mistake faith for institutions or for people in high places in institutions. They mistake faith for a building or a congregation.
Faith has to do with the presence of God in our hearts. Insofar as attendance in a church increases faith in God, then that church is useful to us … the Lightworkers … in bringing in the Light.
The minute that there are conspiracies and plots, or diminution of the Light, or an attempt to grab the Lightworker and put him or her in a Lightless cage, then religion ceases to be helpful to us.
The problem, as I see it, is that religion is an earthly institution, and that God stands beyond all that. Somehow we have to spring out of that trap of religion and find in ourselves the guiding Light of the foundation of all religions: the existence of God within us and beyond us.
If we can then attend a church service, or go to temple, read esoteric lore, or whatever it is … and not be caught within that box … but still remembering the Light as it comes down through us … If we can do that, then it is safe to go to church or temple or wherever it is. If we cannot, then we have to steer clear.
A lot of people going through this Ascension process find within their church nurturing and sustenance sufficient to their need in Ascending. It is up to you.
It’s like Jesus Christ in the temple: Lightworkers, like He, are cast out as pariahs, and so forth. Their Light is too great.
If that is the case for you, then try not to worry about it. Just go and worship in the temple of nature. Or worship in your own home. Make your house a great and beautiful place where God can reside with you. If you pray for those people in those other places during their time of worship, maybe that will help too.
So there is more than one way to do it. There are those that feel safer in a church or temple, and those that are cast out from that environment. And there may be churches and faiths where you as a Lightworker are welcome.
SOCIAL ISSUES – HUMAN AFFAIRS – SOCIAL PLANNING
I see, in the table of Contents, quite a few categories that are not that important because they are bound by time and space.
“Contents: Social issues – human affairs – social planning” is a huge category. It includes things like …
“Culture,”
”Economics – economy,”
“Government,” “History”
… things that a lot of people find very interesting, but which are not too important to the Lightworker. We Lightworkers find these of less interest because they are topics specific to a particular timeline and dimensions. And we rise past that, as Lightworkers.
It is okay to look at this category, but it is not too important, I feel. The full name of the category, again, is “Contents: Social issues – human affairs – social planning.” You could put that on the back burner and save it for later on.
STAR BEINGS
Beneath that category is “Contents: Star Beings.” That is quite interesting to most Lightworkers.
I work with some of the Star Beings. But you may find most of that information elsewhere, with others of the Lightworkers. I suggest you just see what I have. It may supplement what you know.
There is a subcategory “Planets – Council of Nine.” That has to do with the Planets in our star system.
The Planets themselves are great beings. And the Sun is a great being. That is the basis for the notion of Astrology.
You as a Lightworker can come in contact with those great beings known as Planets … with the Sun itself … and with the Planets and Suns of other star systems. You can do that.
……………….. Sidebar: How to Contact the Great Beings Known as the Planets of Our Solar System
How can we contact and speak with the Planets of our Solar System? The answers are here ….
Link: “Compendium: Lightworker Homework,” by Alice B. Clagett, compiled and published on 20 June 2022; revised on 14 July 2023 and on 11 September 2024 … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-rqc ..
………………..
That will help rise you to rise above social issues, human affairs, and social planning. You will be in the Greater Light, far beyond what we call the ‘passing show’. So you might want to take a look at “Planets – Council of Nine,” which, as mentioned above, is a subcategory of the category “Star Beings.”
THEOLOGY
Another interesting category is “Contents: Theology.” That has to do with the study of God.
It is because of Theology that we have the current conflict in urban environments, and in countries like Brazil and the Philippines, between the Angelic Realm and the Demonic Realm.
If people were not so crushed together, I think they would immediately come to an understanding that alliance with the Angelic Realm is far preferable to alliance with the Demonic Realm.
Through the Angelic Realm we can live healthy, happy, fulfilled lives. But through alliance with the Demonic Realm we descend into Darkness.
All the Lightworkers know this. And yet, in the big cities … for instance, Los Angeles, here in the United States … or in Brazil, or in the Philippines, and in many other places on Earth … there is a great conflict with the Demonic Realm.
That conflict has established itself with some of the people, and is warring with the Angelic Realm. If you are a Lightworker, it is quite a Light show. It is quite incredible sometimes.
But we, as Lightworkers, need to detach ourselves from that fight.
The Dark always wants to war with the Light. But, as you know, the minute you walk into a Dark room and turn on the Light, the Dark flees. The Dark has no chance, really.
Only by marrying the Dark to cause-and-effect do we meld our energy with the Dark and come out with Grey-Grey.
That is not a good idea for a Lightworker. Do not turn the Light halfway on by fighting the Dark, here in the big cities of Earth. Rise past that, to the Light. And from the Light … from the Light of God … cast down Light upon Earth.
Do not argue with the Dark. So they say. For instance, on the astral plane I am hearing, “I will throw urine onto your tomato plants.” If I keep hearing this, over and over again, I will just remove my tomato plants. I can buy tomatoes at the store. I can buy them at the farmers’ market. I do not have to deal with this terrible thought.
I do not have to war with anybody. I can just take whatever action allows me to bring in the Light, and be joyful.
I have been hearing, on the astral plane, “I will trespass on your property and vandalize it.” I can hear this, year after year, or I can just make my fence a little higher. I can create an impediment that then gives me peace of mind.
I do not need to war. I can come up with a workaround.
MORE MISQUALIFIED THOUGHT FORMS
Back to those misqualified thought forms that have been circulating through the noosphere … Here is one: “I will send my hostile Spirit into your cat. While you are sleeping, the cat will give you nightmares.”
Okay, I can deal with that! The cat will not come into my bedroom at night.
If things get really awful sometimes … during certain states of the sphere of Earth … and if your cat is susceptible to things like that … you can leave your cat in the bathroom at night or when you are resting. Leave it with plenty of food and water and with a litter box. Make sure it is warm enough or cool enough in the bathroom. And so forth. Make it a nice place to be for your cat.
Then sleep someplace far from your cat. In that way you can prevent that from happening.
Unfortunately, lower animals are subject to Dark influences.
We in human form have the distinction of being able to use our higher minds and our very highest minds to influence the Darkness of our subconscious and unconscious minds, and to evade the Darkness on Earth. We do that with the help of others, who are much more Bright than we.
The idea here is that there is a Demonic Realm. There is an Angelic Realm. We invoke the Angels. We do not fight the Dark.
The Dark hopes that we will fight it. But we flood Light through Earth … just as turning on a Light switch in a Dark room would do. We create conditions that are safe for ourselves … safe for animals … safe for everybody on Earth.
We can do that.
GOD – SOURCE
Under the subcategory “God – Source,” there is a category called “Karma – incarnations – reincarnation – causal reality.” This is helpful to the Lightworker because an understanding of causal reality gives us an understanding of when we are in a Causal Trap; when we need to invoke a Higher Power to spring us out of the Causal Trap, the Karmic Trap, into the realm of Dharma … into the realm of blessed Light.
In that general category to do with “Karma – incarnations – reincarnation – causal reality,” there are two sub- subcategories that are good.
One is the “Glom Effect,” which can cause some right bad Ascension symptoms. We as Lightworkers want to escape from the “Glom Effect.”
Another sub- subcategory is “Grouping – leadership.” Grouping and leadership are that through which we Lightworkers. Many other people gang up against us in a glom effect to do with the misqualified energies coming in on the astral airs. These gangs of people try to convince us to group … to be led … and not to seek beyond Earthly power till we find God.
So these two subcategories … “Glom Effect” and “Grouping – leadership” … deserve a look by Lightworkers.
The Difference Between Theology and Theosophy. Also under “God – Source” is a sub- subcategory called “Theosophy – direct knowledge of God.”
You will notice the difference between “Theology” … which is teaching about God or wisdom about God … and “Theosophy” … which is direct knowledge of God. I am greatly in favor of Theosophy. But it is not for everybody. A lot of people want to read about it and believe it just as it is written down by others who were Theosophists. It is okay to take that path as well.
CONCLUSION
Let’s end for now. Next time, in the next video, we will begin with a favorite category of mine, called “Contents: Transcending the Dark – Courage Under Fire – Spiritual Warfare – Demon Wars.”
God bless you all
And keep you safe,
And be with you
Through all your days.

Here is a talk on animal husbandry as practiced by Ravens on Earth today. A comparison is made between Raven animal husbandry techniques and Human animal husbandry.
There is a Summary after the video …

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
Raven Animal Husbandry of Songbirds and Hawks
By Alice B. Clagett
Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.
I have an observation regarding Ravens, Songbirds, and Hawks that has to do with human animal husbandry. That is raising and taking care of animals to use for food and other products.
This in particular has to do with how we raise Chickens for eggs. We breed the Chickens and we keep the Chickens, and then we use their eggs for food. The Ravens do something similar.
As you may know, Ravens are ‘foragers’. They forage around for all kinds of food. In this regard they are similar to humans in their early days, who foraged for food too.
Hawks on the other hand are predators. They dive down and grab animals and eat them.
So Ravens are ‘foragers’ … like the early Humans … and Hawks are ‘predators’ … more like Wolves (but Wolves hunt in packs and Hawks hunt singly).
I have noticed that the Ravens take very good care of the Songbirds. They try to prevent the Hawks from eating the Songbirds.
There was even a Raven Hawk fighter here earlier this year that would fight with the Hawks for the food that they get and grab the food in mid-air aerial battles …
………………..
Sidebar: Father Raven – Mother Hawk Aerial Battle That Took Place on 6 April 2024
Father Raven to Mother Hawk: Alpha! Alpha! I’m Alpha! … [then softly:] Ha ha ha!
Father Raven is stealing food disgorged by the harried predator Mother Hawk, just as Humans use Hawks to down prey that the Humans eat.
The difference in Raven and Human techniques of garnering prey from Hawks may have to do with the Ravens’ smaller size and their flight capabilities.
………………..
Then what happened was that Mother Hawk became very hungry, and it killed Mother Raven, who was Father Raven’s mate. Since then the Ravens have been very careful not to engage in aerial battles with the Hawks.
The Ravens warn the Songbirds about the approach of Hawks. They try to teach them to be very quiet so that they won’t attract the attention of the Hawks, because Hawks are very merciless.
You might ask yourself: Why does this happen?
I have read that in the springtime, when Songbirds mate and produce eggs and then raise children, that the Ravens will raid the Songbirds’ nests for the eggs and for the nestlings … for the baby birds, which they like to eat.
You may think of this in a pejorative or blaming sense, but when you look at people, you may find they do the very same thing. That is what happens when people raise Chicken for eggs and for pullets, which are the young Chickens that we like to eat.
Those Chickens would not be alive except for the fact that the humans want to eat those eggs and those young chickens, you see?
And the same is true of the Ravens and Songbirds. So we have the Ravens to thank for the survival and proliferation of Songbirds on Earth.
Those of you that are into ecology may know the great help that Songbirds are to the ecology of Earth. For instance, Songbirds are important for insect control, for seed dispersal, for pollination, for provision of fertilizers, and not the least, for joy that Earth knows through the beauty of their persons and their songs.
So Ravens are more like us than we think. They are like Early Humans who foraged about the Earth for their food. They are like the Native Americans. And going back farther, they are like the cavemen. They are like the Neanderthals that did not raise food, but foraged for it.
And in addition, Ravens are developing animal husbandry techniques … which may have been the case with the cavemen and the Neanderthals as well. For Ravens as for Early Humans, animal husbandry may be the beginning of Agriculture. Don’t you feel it to be so?
God bless you all,
And keep you safe,
And be with you
Through all your days.
In love, light and joy

MORE INFORMATION
“Animal husbandry is the branch of agriculture concerned with animals that are raised for meat, fibre, milk, or other products.
“It includes day-to-day care, management, production, nutrition, selective breeding, and the raising of livestock.
“Husbandry has a long history, starting with the Neolithic Revolution when animals were first domesticated, from around 13,000 BC onwards, predating farming of the first crops.”

Letter to Violet from Her Betrothed
Dear Ones,
Here is a video about my discovery many long years ago of a love letter written just after the Civil War. At the end of the video, after describing the scene where I made the discovery I read the letter. There is a Summary after the video.
Times then were like times now … full of chaos and change, through which we may win our way through faith in the future….

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
Alice’s Story of Discovering the Letter
Once upon a time there was a great house in the country. The house was separated from the public road by a narrow stretch of woods sheltering a stream. The dirt road that led from the public road to the house skimmed along the near side of the woods for some distance, as if it were reluctant to offer the public a view; plunged into the woods, and ascended a gentle slope. Te slope, at the top of which the house stood, bore several minor structures: at the bottom, a corn crib; farther up, a tool shed; a barn all of worn wood with broken doors/ at the top and to the side of the house a building recently used as servants’ quarters, formerly a doctor’s office.
The house itself was surrounded by aged maples, elms and oaks. The dirt road ended at the rear of the house, and the lawn in front was overgrown with weeds that left burrs and beggars’ lice on trespassers. The bushes along the sides of the lawn were scarcely recognizable, without their leaves, as cultivated plants gone to wild.
The front door of the house, a massive wood-panelled structure cast to shade by the porch roof, was locked. To the left of the main door was a two-story wing of the house, with a smaller porch and door, unlocked.
Inside this door was a room that [had] served as a kitchen. There was a large fireplace with a tiled heart. Empty shelves lined the walls. A very old refrigerator held a half gallon preserve [jar] half full of large, tough string beans. They were pickled. They smelled foul.
A narrow stairway to the rear of the kitchen led to the servants’ sleeping quarters … two small, low-ceilinged rooms. Rubbish of all sorts covered the floor: Broken chairs and bedsprings, magazines, liquor and soda bottles, old clothing, a child’s doll. The planking and rafters of the roof formed the ceilings of the rooms.
In the left room the brick stack of the kitchen chimney protruded from the wall. The view from the windows gave on the maples in front and the wall of the main house to rear.
A door in the kitchen gave on a large, high-ceilinged room in the main house. Heavy, carved wood molding framed the doorways and the large, shuttered window.
Some of the floor planking had been removed, so that one picked one’s way carefully between black holes of undetermined depth into the room directly opposite. This was an enlarged hallway giving on the main door and sheltering a wide, banistered staircase. Under the staircase was a small closet with a wooden nail across, [and] an old grey coat on a rusty coat hanger.
Planks had been removed from the staircase at random, making it necessary to climb on the skeletal form of the stairs. The second-story landing was dimly lit by another large, shuttered window to the right. Between the window glass and the shutter nestled a family of large, grey bats. There were about twenty, the largest about eight inches long, the smallest babies, three inches long, nestled close to their upside-down mothers. Most were sleeping quietly. A few punctuated their search for lice in their fur with the characteristic, high-pitched squeak. Their wings were translucent grey in the light that filtered through the shutters. At close range, the delicate webbing of veins in the wings was visible.
The two rooms on the second floor, opposite and to the left of the stairway, had no planking on the floor. The floor rafters stood bare over the wood lathe supporting the plaster ceiling of the parlor and hall below.
The third floor, with identical but slightly lower-ceilinged rooms, had almost intact floors. In the room opposite the stairwell, old clothes cluttered the floor. The remains of a bureau stood in one corner. The shutters from one of the two windows had come undone, and the room was well lit.
The clothes in the room were of the last century; there were many faded dresses with floor-length skirts … voluminous folds of material. There was one pair of men’s trousers with black-and-white, striped suspenders. There were rolls of yellowing fancy lace two inches wide, in tended for embroidery of home-sewn dresses.
In the room to the left of the stairs, piles of rubbish were scattered about. The only light came from a small window giving onto the roof of the servants’ quarters. A trap door in the ceiling gave on a completely dark crawl space smelling of cedar. Groping revealed a few rough planks of lumber.
The trash on the floor of the bedroom was different from that in the servants’ quarters. The bottles here were hand-blown glass … Clear glass medicine bottles labeled ‘KELLUM’S sure cure for Indigestion & Dyspepsia’ … Faint blue bottles: ‘JOHN C. BAKER & Co. CITRATE OF MAGNESIA’; ‘HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA’ … Small, clear-glass bottles with grown glass stoppers … Dark green bottles without labels had tiny bubbles fused in the glass that sparkled before the light.\
No clothing in this room. Wooden and cardboard boxes filled with books published in the 18th [19th?] Century. A curious stack of almanacs printed on yellow paper like newspaper. Fashion magazines of the same kind of paper with [sketches] of women in dresses that humped and flared; high hairdos; large, ornate hats.
Scattered about the floor were pages of stationery covered with carefully graceful handwriting. Among the letters was an envelope containing a stiff yellow postcard with a photograph of a man and woman on the front.
The woman dressed like the women in the magazines, was seated. The man stood beside here with one elbow on the chair shoulder, foot propped on a stool, so that his bent knee, on which the other hand rested, was raised to a level midway between the woman’s hands, folded in her lap, and her bodice. The man’s hair was clipped short and slicked down. The man’s mouth wavered between a smile and indifference. The woman was smiling, with her head tilted slightly to one side. The angle was accentuated by her broad-brimmed hat, whose white feathers curved into the margin of the picture.
On the back of the postcard was the caption “Hilton & Mitchel Studios, So Carolina Ave, Broadway, Atlantic City, N.J.” …

Here is the letter I found on the bedroom floor. I have left the spelling and punctuation as in the original. First are the images of the letter; then after that, my transcription of the script, which I found a little difficult to read because of its antiquity …

Transcription of the Letter
Greensboro NC
April 29th 1865
My dear Violet
The long agony is over and the Confederacy is a failure. I am here with Johnston’s Army to be paroled, and expect to leave for Md on the 1st day of May – will travel on horse-back in company with a large number of ex-officers. Our route will be through Richmond thence to Gordon’sville & on to the Potomac, will cross it opposite Poolesville in Montgomery County. If I meet with no unforeseen interruption, expect to reach home about the 20th. I will not now attempt a narrative of the painful & eventful scene of the closing days of our struggle. This will serve for many a long talk in “brighter & happier days”
Brad Johnston is here & may accompany me homeward, he has just informed me of a public meeting which was held in Cecil Co. Md to protest against & prevent the return of Marylanders who have taken part in the Rebellion. I hope the sentiments expressed by that meeting have but few advocates in the old State – Now my dear Violet, do write me a long letter giving me all the news & informing me what I may expect from the people of the State or rather those, who I must meet. I am prepared to meet any difficulty in an effort to be with you again, only let me know that the effort meets your approbation. I will return to you with a heart unchanged & a love as ardent & sincere as when we met. Thank God the privation & exposure incident to the life I have led for the last four years, has made but little impression upon my health, time has dealt jently & kindly with me & indeed I am happy in the hope of soon being able to redeem the promise long ago made you. Confiding so entirely in your constancy & affection I am really sure that you will “gladly welcome my return” Th future is full of hope for me, happy indeed will I be, when I can devote my time in contributing to your pleasure and enjoyment, to make you happy will indeed b happiness for me. Now that the Union is restored you can have no hesitation or difficulty in writing to me, as soon as I see home, I will seek you – let me know where you will be. Can I be welcome at your home
Be sure to write me & enclose in envelope sent. I will expect you to do so, please dont’ disappoint me. Remember me to your mother, cousin & all friends.
Ever Yours
Affectionately __
C. A. Hastings
Perhaps I may not be able to leave here so soon as the 1st in that event I will not reach home as early as the 20th I will write you again from Richmond – Be sure to write me & put it in an envelope directed to me, then enclose it in the envelope I send you – by so doing no one will know that you have written me –
In love, light and joy
This is Alice B. Clagett.
I Am of the Stars … and so are you!
