Theos-Talk Archives (March 2006 Message tt00044)

In my researches into the author and playwright Sir JM Barrie(Who was a 
Theosophist) in his book SENTIMENTAL TOMMY is a subtle version  contained in 
the chapter The Hanky School , where the  School Misteress, Miss Aillie's 
garden is her  pride and joy had a large fruit tree that was always 
plundered when the fruit were ripe, she hung a notice which read "Those 
stealing fruit be mindful and not trample the flowers"
There is more to JMBarrie than Peter Pan.
cheers Iain
