As a firm IDI , I don’t see any harm in adding a couple of oddities to the above “Alice and Wonderland aspect”, in addition to the play and the daughter’s abduction on Dec. 26; having found, through internet searches, that Janet Doris McReynolds, under the name of Doris Ballew, in an earlier marriage to James Ballew, had two children who died soon after birth…one on that relevant date, December 26 (1961); furthermore, notice in the above example of her disturbing but brilliant writing and speech, the way that “…she deserved to die…” repetition is so similar to the “…she dies…” repetition of the ransom note. The date December 26 is significant, in my opinion, as the Irish “Saint Stephen’s Day”, which relates to ancient winter solstice celebrations of the Celts, who, some but not all theorize, practiced human sacrifice to a notable degree.
