I remember Magda talking to Evan Hanley in the drawing room at Collinwood saying: "I know you took the book!!" Evan replies, "The Book??!" Magda then says, "The Hand!!"
During the Adam storyline, Julia & Willie are burying Barnabas, whom they presumed dead. Willie in distress says to Julia, "Julia, what are we gonna tell the folks up at the... the... old house, I mean,.... the..... the... new house, uh, the big house." I guess Collinwood kind of slipped his mind.
