Second Trip & Gem Stones

Brianna gives Claire a topaz necklace for the passage through the stones. Claire comments that she had on a jeweled watch when she went through the first time and Jamie’s father’s ring when she went through the second time.

Roger believes this means they protect you.

Geillis believed you could steer with them.

Margaret Campbell’s Fortune

When Claire goes to visit Margaret Campbell, Margaret has a “vision” and tells Claire:

“Gleep, gleep. Gleep, gleep. D’ye hear ’em? D’ye hear the tree toads lullaby? And the moon — the moon be chokin’ wi’ blood. Ye must be careful, Abandawe will devour ye. Abandawe, Abandawe. Abandawe…”

This ends up referring to the standing stones in Jamaica. Margaret is warning Claire about the passage through the stones. One can assume the “chokin’ wi’ blood” could refer to Geillis’s death.

Them Bones

Joe Abernathy is looking over some bones for a friend and gets Claire involved in the “investigation.” Claire touches the bones and says they are a “150 year murder victim.” Joe tells her she’s about 50 years off meaning the bones are 200 years old. These bones were of a white woman found in a cave in Jamaica.

This is a lot of information about bones for them not to mean something.

Paul Revere’s Ride

Brianna’s professor tells her history class that Paul Revere did not complete his ride because he was captured by the Redcoats and a fellow rider named Prescott completed their mission to warn of the British arrival. However, he did complete part of his ride.

On April 18, 1775, Paul Revere was instructed by the Sons of Liberty to ride to Lexington, Massachusetts, to warn Samuel Adams and John Hancock about the British troops movements. He accomplished this mission. It was on the way to Concord to warn patriots there; he and his compatriots, were stopped at by the very British soldiers they were warning Adams and Hancock about. Revere was captured and questioned. The British brought him back to Lexington but left him alone when they heard the gunshots from the Battle of Lexington Green. Revere found John Hancock and his family and helped them escape Lexington with a trunk full of incriminating papers.
