Saucers of the Illuminati

[Helen Reyes]

Helen,

Barnes and Angell Streets are separate and distinct.

Lovecraft tours continue to be offered. He is to Providence what Poe is to Baltimore -- and of course Poe also prowled the same neighborhood in which Lovecraft lived and worked.

Something in the water, perhaps.

Benefit Street and St. John's churchyard I guess. I sort of wondered why Lovecraft would be ashamed to bring his Jewish wife to Providence. I remember reading Newport (Newburyport?) has probably the earliest synagogue in North America except for one pretender in Brooklyn perhaps. Apparently Stuyvesant didn't want Jews from Brazil fleeing the Dutch conflict with Portugal settling in New Amsterdam, even though they were Dutch-alligned and thus had to flee, so some settled in the state of the free thinkers instead, where I remember at least one took a moral stand against slavery and the slave trade. How that relates to Dunkin Donuts I'll never know for sure.
