He was in the back of the truck with his Black Cohort.
Earlier on he had been up in that Port Jefferson area on Long Island, in a very old building that had now been turned into an Eatery.............. The grounds around the perimeter had that quality of a museum.
Cadbury made a turn and up in the corner was a man in a red knit shirt.... there was a woman next to him watching....
He was working with stone chisels tapping into a head stone,,, splitting the face off with the inscription, like a wafer......... it broke off clean....
Cadbury does not recall exactly the inscription but it was something to the effect of so and so was a loving 'Filipina' wife.
A mystery of sorts.
and lets not forget the fun dancing girls earlier... dressed all funky.
at any rate back to being in the rear of the moving truck.......
Cadbury was looking in the back of a paper history book of the area that had some photos....
There was a photo of a fellow sitting in a chair at the end of a building on the beach.
Unknowing to him at that moment they drove by the very spot the photo had been taken years earlier.....
The black man had been looking at the book earlier with Cadbury as well...
He now gestured and pointed ... and said... 'over there' that is where the photo had been taken...
How do you know? said Cadbury.
Why I recognize the permanent or semi permanent land marks in the photo... he said.
That Rail Road crossing sign bolted into the cinder block there and the affixed lamp were there in the fore and back ground of the photo... don't you see?
That is how.
The landmarks.
Cadbury would have completely missed seeing them had not his cohort pointed them out.
Cadbury grew very excited towards the black man in the back of the truck with him...
'Do you realize what you have done?' he said.........
What you have proven here?
His fellow worker.. just sort of gave a bemused look... short of rolling his eyes.....
Why, you have proven what makes us human versus animal......
'Recognition via associations'..........
The very essence of being human...
The power of deduction is recognition and......................
The Essence of being Human.
