Yeeha! Yep, Miz Honey Bee - and I have more of yer answer, or part of it, I do. First off, as I said earlier, the date of 1894 might have somethin' to do with that thar priest from RLG who put the statue of Ste. Ger-maine in his Church of Mary Magdalene. That priest had him a girlfriend, it seems, named Miz Emma Calve - no, she wasn't no heifer, she was a right purdy singer - kinda like that thar Madonna.

Thanks, Lone Star, I knew I could depend on you to protect me. I do not understand where your line of thought is going, but proceed with my blessing.

"Georges Girard, Jean Contrucci and several researchers have asked themselves
whether Emma Calvé had heard of the book of Abraham the Jew before buying
Cabrières in October 1894, and whether this may have influenced her
decision.
"The huge works undertaken by Emma Calvé to restore Cabrières, of necessity
preceded by demolition work, may only have served as an alibi and a way of
hiding discreet excavations. Did she find l'Asch Mezareph (the very word
of Hermes), certified host of Cabrières, according to Pierre Borel (1655 - counsel and doctor to the king) who
cited it on pages 160 and 161, tome two (Paris, 1655) of his book entitled
Tresor de Recherches et Antiquites Gauloises et Françoises?
"According to Georges Girard, one might say that this book was:
That which an angel might have presented in a dream to the alchemist
Nicolas Flamel, and that an old man might have come to propose that she buy
it shortly after.
"In reality, the famous Nicolas Flamel never existed; it was Jean Flamel,
secretary of Jehan d'Arras, author of L'Histoire de Melusine (Story of Meusine), at the
request, as Patrick Ferté reports, of the Duc Jean de Berry for his
sister Marie, in fact Duchess of Bar...wife of Robert, 1st Duc de Bar and
sovereign of Stenay."
Tippin' my Stetson to Mr. Silvain fer the above in-fo-mation.

So, what had happened to the Book of Abraham the Jew? Did Dali possess the work?
Isn't that same book rumored to be about achieving...the Secret of Immortality? And why is there a skull next to Mary Magdalene in Dali's library since we are on the subject of overcoming death? Hmmm? Come to think of it, Dali did produce a grand work on the subject of Alchemy, a magnificent tome bearing a Mercury dial on its cover and a depiction of an emerald tablet within. Just saying.
