Re: Chapter 1.3 - Investigations II
The librarian looked quite upset at the news of Jackson's passing.
"You have my condolences, my dear. I cannot say that I knew Jackson intimately, but I've known him for many years and have a great respect for his works and his research. Over the years, I've occasionally been able to point him to a particular book or otherwise aid him in his research and we've been periodically in touch. I will sincerely miss him."
"As I mentioned, Jackson was looking for a volume called Africa's Dark Sects by one Nigel Blackwell, a self-funded explorer of sorts. The topics in the book vary widely, but the focus is on African cults and esoteric religious practices - the more gruesome or vile the better. Cannibalism and bestiality are some of the more comparatively tame practices discussed. He focuses on the Kenyan Crown colony and German East Africa, the Belgian Congo, and West Africa. We did have one of the only remaining copies of this book in the world in our collection, but it seems to have simply disappeared from our collection."
"Still, I knew Jackson was mainly interested in African cults, and I was to help him look for some material on the subjects of his interest when he came here."
