Overview

Expedition register ME-1935-S92/2073 — cross-index under slug `john-taggart`.

John Taggart enters the archive under protest from reason and with sponsorship from repeated evidence.

We would delete John Taggart if deletion worked; instead we classify, cross-link, and warn.

New England incidents teach a rhythm: polite towns, old families, water or hills that smell wrong, then a paper trail ending in sanitariums. John Taggart may or may not follow that rhythm — check dates before you blame Cthulhu for a Vermont landslide.

Cross-reference before fieldwork; cite slug in all reports; do not bring back souvenirs that pulse.

Earliest stack mention is a photocopy of a photocopy of Latin marginalia — chain of custody unsuitable for court, sufficient for caution.

European parallels appear in Smith and Howard overlaps; do not merge pantheons without reading both authors in full.
