I had known about her but the familial connection was a surprise. And Pryse is not the only in-law with psychic connections either...stay tuned.Sean Bentleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02777191262417995366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3249158022937816424.post-89471504573255533122011-09-18T10:45:04.781-07:002011-09-18T10:45:04.781-07:00I'm definitely intrigued.

In a way, James Jr.'s "look" seems to express the same emotions. They both look skeptical to me.Postcardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16399915833682943432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3249158022937816424.post-29182941439406038722011-09-17T02:56:39.405-07:002011-09-17T02:56:39.405-07:00How intriguing.

Blavatsky is actually quite odd-looking, and was perhaps self-conscious about her somewhat pudgy face, caused by the Bright’s disease from which she was a sufferer. I wonder if this accounts for the slightly protruding eyes too.Little Nellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862657943846727987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3249158022937816424.post-69232126861303422202011-09-16T21:42:51.299-07:002011-09-16T21:42:51.299-07:00This is an absolutely fascinating post.
