Weird Time Article, Paul's Grave, Connection?

[iwilliam]

I think i may have stumbled upon an interesting connection. Bear with me a moment. I was reading a thread on another forum, TKIN, when i saw a post which said this:

‘’My uncle helped bury the real Paul some time in Sepetember 1966. He's buried in a grave at a cemetary near Crouch End, under the name "Peter James McKilroy". George and Ringo both went to the funeral, in disguise, but John never did.’’

Now, i read somewhere else that the cemetery in quesiton is Highgate Cemetery. Here is a link to their website:

www.highgate-cemetery.org

If you look through the site you can see on the FAQ page that a number of famous people are buried here. This cemetery is, of course, near "Crouch End." You can go through the cemetery, but they charge admittance.

Now, trying to find what information I could, I did a bunch of googling. One such search was for "Highgate Cemetery london beatles mccartney" Which actually gave a few relevant results. One of them was from Time Magazine's website. I was given a snippet of the beginning of an article (I do not have a subscription, so I can't see the whole thing).

This article is dated Friday, Oct. 31, 1969. Here is what I was able to see... and if you haven't seen what I'm about to reprint, hold on to your seats:

Essay: Of Rumor, Myth and a Beatle
Friday, Oct. 31, 1969

LONDON AP—Paul McCartney vigorously denied today the rumor that he is alive and well. At a resurrection ceremony held at London's Highgate Cemetery, the 24-year-old Beatle, who would have been 27 had he lived, emerged from his tomb to insist that he was decapitated in a car accident three years ago.

"This is the sort of thing one doesn't get over," he told a crowd estimated by Scotland Yard at 3,500. "If I were really alive, wouldn't I be the first to admit it?" Amid a chorus of anguished protest from the audience, McCartney re-entered his crypt and was seen to...

That is all I can see without a subscription. I tried to search for this article elsewhere using relevant samples of text with no luck. Someone please tell me you have a subscription to time, or otherwise know more about this article.

The google search also gave me this bit of text:

Resurrection ceremony? With Paul? At the Cemetery someone is alleging the real Paul was buried in? WTF? More info here would be awesome.

Look at the date: Friday, Oct. 31, 1969
It was Halloween.

The article must have been some kind of joke. Obviously he wouldn't deny he was alive!

Yes, just like he wouldn't put a bunch of clues on albums indicating that he's dead. But some people seem to think this is what happened.

I did observe the date. And I'm sure this was meant as a joke of some kind. Probably the same kind of joke as album clues, I would suspect. And I find the fact that Highgate cemetery is mentioned in this article to be rather odd in conjunction with the person who claimed their uncle buried the real paul there.

Could that be some serious PID fanatic who was aware of this article, making a claim about his uncle the gravedigger? Maybe. What I'll say to that is that I've read A LOT of PID stuff and I've never heard of this article. Apparently it is mentioned in a book which REFUTES the PID thing.... beyond that, searching for it specifically turns up little. So if that comment from TKIN or wherever is just a hoax, it was made by a serious PID'er with a long memory.

Not sure I can see this all as purely coincidental.

Well the TIME magazine article was written tongue-in-cheek; that's obvious.

But here's a video someone did that coincides with some of what you have mentioned.

at 6:39 elvis mentions he like to go horseback riding. ive looked over the backporch tapes quite a few times and have come up with a few interesting clues. if you search the tapes for "interview with white rabbit" you will come across a very long interview with the manson families LSD supplier. at one point he mentions that while living at the spahn ranch he saw jerry rubin and abbie hoffman riding horses refusing to pay for the ride and being chastised for it. white rabbit says he was only there because of sadie. michael thinks he is full of shit.

in the interview elvis is asked about the sound of his music - basically he is asked if his music will ever be innovative again and elvis begins drumming on the table. the story of the beatles encounter with elvis and he is asked when he is going to start making records again. he is asked about his "karate suit" which supposedly comes from one of the occult books - alice bailey. an ascended master. i may be wrong, but i think elvis took LSD and took karate. and ate banana and peanut butter sandwiches while reading an alice bailey tome.

what does this have to do with vietnam?
this has everything and nothing to do with vietnam.

we learn from elvis that no man is above the law.

The Highgate Cemetry website offers a search facility. If someone is prepared to spend £40 and complete the form they will locate a grave for you. Being in London, if someone finds some more details I am happy to go and find the grave - though I suspect this is just an urban myth.

Highgate Cemetry is the burial site of Sgt Pepper grandee and 33 degree freemason Karl Marx, so if this is where Paul Mccartney is buried he is in good company!

B- As I said, I do agree that this article seems to be written in a tongue-in-cheek kind of manner. But I get the same..."cheeky" kind of vibe from a lot of the clue material. And as I'm about to mention in another thread, it seems like Paul's game has always been to drop weird clues and then deny deny deny.

You say he would certainly never deny being alive?

I'm pretty sure you've seen this, or at least clips from it. Maybe you just forgot it:



Leterman says something about the double theory, to which Mccartney (at 1:43) replies, pointing at himself "well, this is him." (meaning the double) Yes, his tongue seems to be firmly in cheek the whole time... but he is tongue-in-cheek admitting his death, which is really quite similar when you think about it, to tongue-in-cheek denials that you're alive, based around the same rumor.

I really want to read this full article. Maybe there is a clue buried somewhere in there. Some pun intended.



Beacon: I read through the site and it seems like they have an East and West side of the cemetery. If he is buried in the East you could find him on your own (although there is still an entrance fee.) The west side is supposedly open by guided tour only. From what I gather there are older graves in the west (though reading between the lines it seems like maybe some modern ones?) and I think they said there are more "famous" people in the east.

Not sure how well off anyone else is, but that 40 pound to have them locate a grave seems steep. For this price they will give you an inscription as well, if there is one. If I had the extra I would totally do it, as a ha-ha. And were I in london, I'd be at this place in a heartbeat (as the admittance is a good deal more reasonable than 40 pounds, and I enjoy strolls through old cemeteries-- I'm odd like that)

Nice find. As you may know, TIME and LIFE were/are the same company owned by the Luce family and they have been linked more ways than not to the so-called Illuminati. My own opinion is that all the major U.S. news magazines have been CIA controlled since just before WWII.

I agree that the TIME thing is obviously a 'joke' but as we all should know by now, the Illuminati and their ilk like to put the truth right out there on the table and pretend it's a joke. They have a demented way of thinking it's funny to rub the public's nose in something all the while making fun of it.

There are numerous examples. The clip of the fake Mike McGear on the Mike Douglas show "when's the last time you saw your brother?" "At his funeral." Ha, ha, big joke.

Count me in with those who would like to see a photo of a headstone that reads 'Peter James McKilroy' although such a photo could easily be photoshopped.

Sidenote: During WWII, the G.I.s in Europe would paint this message on walls in bombed out villages: 'Kilroy was here'. The joke was that there was no such person as Kilroy. An infantryman just made it up as a silly thing but then it took off when famous war reporter Ernie Pyle started using it in his cartoons.

Another thing I've always found interesting is how fast they cremated John Lennon (or the double who was impersonating Lennon). I haven't fact checked this, but it seems like 'Lennon' was cremated within 24 or maybe 48 hours of being shot. You can't prove a person's identity with a pile of ashes.

With that in mind, one wonders why they would have had a funeral and burial for the original Paul. Sounds too risky. The body could be dug up later and evidence obtained. I also doubt that George and Ringo would turn up to Paul's funeral in disguise. If they were really trying to hide PID, they wouldn't risk being found out at a funeral.

I think it's more likely that original Paul was cremated or his body destroyed beyond recognition or hidden somewhere it could never be found, which would not be at Highgate Cemetary. So, this is very tantalizing in that the Illuminati like to tell us the truth while making like it's a joke, but on the other hand this story sounds a bit urban legendy, too.

I agree that £40 is a lot of money, especially as the request may not reveal anything.

I will see if I can visit the cemetry and see what I can find.
