Chapter 1: Section 5: Page 37: Line 38 (620)

 "Perhaps," one beaming Oriental suggested, "it was hallucinating you."

At least this jerk is trying to be mysteriously philosophical about Lew's problem. A little metaphysical creativity never hurt anybody. Unless it was advice being given to somebody who really needed some sort of physical cure. But Lew's just being plagued by The Unknown Sin. If it was hallucinating him then that means the sin is real and Lew just a figment of someone or something's imagination. Which would explain why even people who haven't heard about the sin look upon Lew with disdain and disgust. Because they're looking directly at the sin!

I think this Oriental guy is onto something!
