1937 SUMMER Discourses - ANDRE-JOSETTE-Greetha

We were UNDER THE GREAT BLACK SKY with DIAMONDS set in its vast spaces- & we have all agreed with discussions that WE ARE TO GO TO THE STARS…

(& I know from my family histories that Gertruid Great POUL’s grand-daughter had eyes like “diamonds in the Black Northern skies” when FREDERICK RANSOM came sailing in with his brother JOHN RANSOM & began his courtship of a Maid in Eskimo clothes with her girlfriends She can be seen my father’s Great-Grandma Gertruid 2-times-back for Greetah in the painting by their old friend Delacroix Sardanapulas-she wears an indigo veil- it is in the PARIS Louvre- Delacroix liked painting her exotic presence listening to her Greenlandic lore-she spoke several languages well having been in Finishing School Norway…(The British Nobles made obscene drawings in the 1930s of an educated woman- & of her daughter Margarethe the richest person in the globe to their CRASS bestial envious understanding-they the Vagrants sailing about the globe)

“The RANSOM BROTHERS late 1820s borrowed a skiff at Frederickstown & went to look at a new harbour site called JOHNSTOWN but it would not do-not deep enough-they sailed along & eyed the girls for it was time they had brides & got some good blood coming in-their mother a Miss Keiller had died at 32 years of age from an Apothecary insisting she could not go to church with this little lump on her neck-autopsy done by FR 19 years old who took his young mother’s body to near Edinburgh in shawls & blankets & learned with the doctors-lump not at all going to her brain directed by the Devil- ignorant older family members her side persuaded to bow to pressure- Because of this he wrecked his ship channel-sat talking with young friend Gericault about wrecks…bought 3 paintings-ANDRE MALRAUX SAW photographs & article in a magazine 1920s on these- `Property of a woman who lived on a barren Scots Hebrides Island`

A Weeping Andre Malraux in winter 1970 said he had nothing to connect in SUMMER 1937 when Greetah spoke of an ancestor helping `paint a Raft`…

`The RANSOM family were away in Spain on a rescue- a terrible tragedy happened- JEAN WEDDELL ballerina was soon Winning in the Spanish Courts for the bereaved Murgatroyd Missionaries- Jean grandmother Ransom to Greta- her first languages Spanish-Portuguese-French-American-some Peru & Tierra dialects-she always spoke English with South American accent-so British Nobles called her an Ape…`

1820s West Greenland - FRED RANSOM spoke to this Maid in GREENLANDIC-she answered him in NORWEGIAN-he tried that & she answered him in FRENCH-He tried GERMAN & she knew that- & LATIN-she tossed her head & gave him a Sermon on the Mount in GREENLANDIC stressing the teaching of JOHN a favourite in Greenlandic Christian teaching- She did not have Ethiopian to her tongue- Frederick RANSOM was fluent- from putting himself in the COPTIC school 6 months when he was 12 years old & went to stay with a widowed Aunt for 2 years: his Aunt was told to stay living in the Residence-her husband had been the Consul ( USA or G.B. ?)

GERTRUID POULSEN- she is Jacop’s only daughter ( Jacop Gronlander-POULSEN eldest son of POUL GRONLANDER & Margaret nee Yates his wife ) & HER DOWRY WAS GREAT POUL GRONLANDER’S ISLAND agreement with her brother Count Poulsen Norway- SHE WAS THUS COMMITTED TO BUILD A UNIVERSITY to her Grandfather POUL on the island Jacopsholmen- a big island off Xristenshab- Decree 1770 Danmark-

FRED RANSOM he records the first meeting “her eyes were like diamonds in the Northern Skies” its in Jacop’s Ladder an autobiography by J.R after her death & their life of miraculous achievements-the Theatre Jacopsholmen Island going up & that world of intelligent civilized humanism visiting an Island of happiness- craftwork-hospital-school of outstanding intelligence- modern houses superior to Europe-hygiene-diet-Island able to provide for itself always 5 years ahead from the Ice Caves everybody had…

“ Old Fred Ransom up within the Arctic circle had the first metal re-cycling Unit in the world” says Captain Alan Villiers “THE FIRST BELL CAST IN GREENLAND, 7 feet or so tall”

`Fred & Gertruid Ransom had the four children-

lst Frederick age 7 years to fall down a crevass with cousins Gronlander bodies never recovered- then Margarethe- John & Poul “the school the highest standard in the globe” adds Captain Alan Villiers Dec 1967 Oxford- `

SHAME - SHAME - SHAME !” bombed by Gross Britain & Denmark 1960 June onwards-& Captain Alan Villiers named gormless big spenders of violent fraud-December 1967 Oxford- All Hell broke out around us again snooping wretches with long black tongues sadistic brutes who drip blood & gore from the slaying of the Grote Homes children so they could get DOUGH- Greta being blamed by ice blobs on a mud puddle… for living at 50 Lancaster Gate Square invited by ANDRE MALRAUX April 17^th 1957

1937 SUMMER HOLIDAY- nearly midnight after sad hours of they not in harmony the daylight hours- I begin to describe to JOJo&Joh & ANDRE-George what it is like to be the Cabbage Fairy & SHE IS SKATING ON THE BLUE-GREEN LEAVES encrusted with frost …FOUL WINTER HATH COME to seacoasts the globe & cabbages give us health -

1937 - Did I attempt to tell of Millicent Frobisher Mrs JOHN RANSOM my grandpa Ransom’s tragic tiny mother & why we always keep the house ’Jerusalem’ at Deptford- speak of true happenings nowadays…

“Mill sits on the stairs- We say Lennie & I- `going skating Mill ? ` Wait a moment & we will come…& we can all call in at the Ice Cream Makers Soho & go into the Park where you take little Frederick Charles in this push-chair I am happy to have- We can go talk with JEAN’s Grandpa Weddell sitting on the Deptford waterfront-give him some hope- say WE ARE ALL HERE & HEALTHY-& determined to survive-& its thanks to you & all of them our lines sailing down the years of the centuries- & you came a bride because you loved us all so…`

I must have said some sentences of family histories while relating ` a FAIRY SKATING IN WINTER not minding foul weather-

I always finish personal matters the family with `A CHEERFUL ADVICE` - how to deal with grief… & this is learned from both lines my grandparents- Lennie & I are unable to avoid sad lives lived or being lived but they must never be forgotten & trash put in their places-

we show to others PATHS OF HOPE…It is my father FJR his brothers JR & LIR who will pass written work on the RANSOM et al family histories to ANDRE MALRAUX 1960 on…

1937 NEXT MORNING DAWNED & ROSY FINGERED DAWN WAS WEARING HER CLOAK OF SAFFRON for we seem to have slept longer- & we three rose from our beds our natural chosen times /our beds are tied together & I because of the nightmare am welcomed to sleep at the bottom of their tied beds as “the little lion the little Palestine Crusaders dog at the foot of our tombs” - We were all very happy more than before- & Andre Saint GEORGE was especially kind & attentive to JOSETTE at the breakfast table the next days- & the happy holiday routine went on…`
