Jack- he wrote me apologizing for the delay and said he'd try to get to it over the weekend. I'll let you know if I get a response.
After some confusion and back and forth as to which article this was, I got this response:
Ahh ... *that* article.
I wrote that over 10 years ago; in hindsight, I'd say it's a bit too terse. The attendant nature of Hekate is obvious in the Homeric hymn, and her role as guide for Persephone back from Hades is amply recorded in *other* versions of the Return.
However, he does not specify which other versions he means.
