My Dear Sir David, (Knight of Calypso).
You hold the precious tablet that was taken out of a hole, from the stone wall that the Arawaks built.
For safe keeping, until the time is right.
You went to the Mount in the mid 40's. 
You write to me of this strange dream, of an older Knight you did not recognize.
David, if you did not recognize this Knight, then I must go to a higher circle, and tell them of this dream, for only they know the secrets of that Great Circle.
If there is A Box That Is Already There, your dream is a Key, if now is the time for it to be revealed.
I cannot say, for there are pages, in our great book, which only a few can view.
I will pass this important letter on.
Thank You for sharing, in this Club, this is not strange, The Tales Of The Knights Of White Stones, are ALL DREAMS, that have been passed on, from Circle to Circle.
Yours Faithfully –
Glen McKoy.  (Member of the Writers of The Knights).

Hi Glen,
This is indeed very strange--last night in a dream an old knight from the Mount came to me (I did not recognise him and said) tell Glen McKoy that when he is writing his book he must put in a paragraph to inform all Mount knights that when they die before they leave the earths atmosphere they must go back to Mount Tabor and it is very important that::
THAT THEY PUT THEIR NAME IN A BOX THAT IS ALREADY THERE SAYING THAT THEY HAVE LEFT THE EARTH FOR ANOTHER VOYAGE.  
That was all the dream said and now I get this email from you--well freak me out--I do not know what else to say—
later "bandit"

Dear Myron,
Thank you for informing us of your online Jewellery store. 
You may have mentioned it, but so many brothers tell me so much.
After a while I don't remember who tell me what ha! ha! 
Intelligent people write things down. I remember something about another brother, who wholesales & manufactures jewellery, he ships from South America to the States, you may also know him?
Thank you for offering a 10% discount, to any Mount Boy. 
I did check out the site, 18K excellent, is the standard for good gold jewellery.
I will send this out to the Club, brothers who may me buying a little something for a loved one, may find this helpful.
Very nice stuff, prices seem reasonable, however I am going to Mexico next month, and will waste some money on silver.
Will check your store in December, its Christmas, will be broke in January, happy new year to you too ha! ha!
Adios Amigos, Glen.

Hello to all,
The new brothers that have returned from whence they came, back to the invisible tribe of a time before, a place in space, a castle in the sky, welcome to the Abbey School old boys’ club.

Tales of the Knights from "White Stone", as the legend continues...
If you have never lived on the magical mountain Tabor, surrounded by all boarders, then the following passages, will have no meaning, no logic and no reason,
If you have seen, and lived in this lost world we speak of,
Hola, mi amigo, ahi esta.
Abbey School T&T./Old Boys/ Private Club/ members only.
Welcome my brothers,
Reflections from an Eagle's Eye.
As the sun shines down on Mt. Tabor, upon one of her peaks, the "White Crystal Stones" glitter and glow like diamonds.
The year is 1985, it’s the last year, the Club will accept a brother as a Knight and the Abbey School, is officially Closed without notice, the past alumni are left in the dark.
Any proper school would have prepared or allowed its past students a place, address or something for connection.
This was not a fly by night operation; this was a well-respected institution.
A place all Knights still consider sacred and special.
It seems like, once profits were made, and the business was done, this is all it was for some.
Not so, for others who taught us, and took care of us, and fed us, they knew that we were Knights, and that one day, we would find them and thank them all, as we still walk in the Light, today.
A few past students began little gatherings with boys of their time, these little gatherings spread all over the world, and little circles would be formed.
A fire started to burn, as the legend continues, mystery surrounded by silence,
Why? Without closure, the closing of' the greatest boarding school, in the British West-Indies, since 1942-1985.
The Think Tank,
The Intellectual Zoo of ideas, experiments and inventions, absolute freedom of thought. This Machine a few wise Monks built, from just a dream they all had, as young Monks during the 2nd world war, living in Holland, for they were the first dreamers, but not the last, then came the Knights.
They climbed up to "White Stones" with their feet, but when they left, every single Knight of that Castle in the Sky, from all Boarders, had Wings, they flew away, from the top of "White Stones", and no one knows, if they would ever return.
They left the Mount the way they found it.
This we know, that a sacred, secret, invisible "Realm", remains in Cyber-Space.
No Knight lives in the Castle anymore, however the Castle lives in all Knights, as written in the book, "The King of Hearts, Reflection of an Eagle's Eye”, by the Knight of Dreams 1962, as the power of One, in the power of Now, Long live the Knight, long live the Mount.
The Abbey School, we stand alone, we will protect our own.
Only a few wise Monks knew, that in the passage of time, and with their Wings of freedom, these Knights would wonder all over the world, the knowledge they attained, and the wisdom to be gained.
One Monk said to another, “Do you think they will ever remember??” The Dream of a few wise Monks, the creation of the "Abbey School", what would be the outcome of this creation??
A school of International Standards, well known in its time, these Monks toiled and laboured their entire lives, to achieve their goal, in materializing this dream.
This their offering to their maker, "The Abbey School of Trinidad and Tobago, Mt. St. Benedict”, they prayed, that only good and great things may come, from this dream, that became a reality. The Mount.
What may seem like the end of an era, the closing of the school, the end of it all for some?
The Acorn that was planted, the "Abbey School of Trinidad & Tobago” became a big old Oak Tree of a Club, and is more active and alive than ever, the Invisible Tribe, the Imaginary Friends, you had to be there to know, how so true, having the times of your life, yes I am talking to You! A well-kept secret, "The Realm of Hope, from the United Time Zone of One, transmitting in the Power Of Now”.
Thanking all my brothers for their time, good cheer at all times,
Best regards
Glen McKoy.
