Episode 77… Rebecca’s Help… (Part two It really was not very clear to Charles how he should set about making contact with Rebecca. In the past she had simply been there in his mind and her embodiment just materialised. Now the difficulty, was how to make that all happen again! This puzzled him for some days, whilst he busied himself with the routines of running his photographic business. He had passed his word to Herbert, and that must stand, he told himself. ‘Herby’ himself had returned to the confines of his small upstairs living quarters in Brick Lane, confident in the endeavours of his dear friend. uch thought passed through Charles mind in those coming days, even to the point of perhaps employing the serMvices of a ‘Medium’ then it suddenly struck him, what was staring him in the face all along!
