Beulah,
Thanks for finally clearing up, what was a mystery to me. When I first designed this site, I tried to find out what the symbol meant. I looked all over the Internet, studied Arabic glyphs with no success. It seems all things come to those who wait.
The meaning "pilgrimage" is perfectly appropriate and most certainly intentional and was probably suggested by Whittemore himself.
