AS Napoleon Bonaparte the two names total the number 13, which number, in the occult symbolism, which accompanies this system of letters and numbers, bears the curious picture of a skeleton .with a scythe mowing men down, also a symbol of “Power” which “if wrongly used will bring destruction upon itself”.
This was so borne out’ by Napoleon’s career that further comment is unnecessary.
Some remarkable illustrations of the significance of names and numbers may be had from examples of ships.
The United States battleship Maine, which so mysteriously exploded in Havana Harbor and in which every man on board was lost, gives for the word “Maine” the number 16 for its compound number, the symbolism for this number being, as you have read is, “A Tower Struck by Lightning”. The mystery of the blowing up of this warship has never been solved, but it caused the declaration of war by the United States against Spain.
Yet another illustration might be taken from the fate of the Leinster, the Holy head and Kingstown mail-boat that was torpedoed by a German submarine within sight of the Irish coast during the last months of the 1914-1918 War.
