R1. 3/15/27 EC’s ltr. to Mr. [943]:
Dear Mr. [943], and all:-
Very naturally, I was somewhat disappointed again this morning when I received the wire that you hadn’t been able to make a FIND.
So I felt - to reassure ourselves - possibly it would be best to undertake this just as if it was an entirely new proposition. Hence the suggestion as you see was made. While there was no attention, seemingly, paid to “You will answer any questions I will ask,” possibly the Forces considered all necessary information was given in the information as follows.
Now, I am at a loss for any suggestion to make other than I feel sure it is there - but here it is the 15th and we haven’t found it yet! I don’t know what CAN be the trouble
- for I can’t think it is not there - but, if it can’t be located, it might as well not be there! But I just feel sure we WILL find it - can’t help but feel so! I just hope you are not all losing patience - though I realize you can’t keep on messing around with something that doesn’t show any better results than this has so far.
The questions on Bimini [See [996] series] were not received in time to get on Friday’s appointment, but will be gotten just as soon as we can get around to it. We find that we are swamped with requests, and have possibly thirty or forty on the desk waiting for a reply - and we have already dated up through the entire month of April.
Let us hear from you, for we are really anxious and certainly desire to see this worked out to a good purpose for us all.
With kindest personal regards from all to all,
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce [EC:GD]
R2. 3/16/27 EC’s ltr. to Mr. [943]:
Dear Mr. [943]:-
I have yours of March 10th. I have already tried to go into details, in the letter to all of you, about the treasure in Broad Creek. I certainly hope that conditions have been such that you have been able to locate this, or will as soon as you receive the last information that was gotten. Yes, I’m sorry that we didn’t have the opportunity to go farther into the plan that was outlined in part regarding the World Organization, [See 3976-4-5] but I feel sure that
- could you but go over a lot of information we have on hand
- information that was given long before any of us had ever DREAMED of anything of this kind - you would see that this is as a link in the chain that will bring into being an organization that will be world wide in its scope, and a benefit to mankind in every walk of life - and I am hoping
- and feel assured, if we have the right ideas - this will come about in such a way and manner that we will be able to get to-gether and go forward with this work - and that it will be builded in such a way and manner that the generations to come will look with pride to the foundations as laid by our endeavors.
It does me good, of course, to have you say your faith is unabated, even in the face of adverse circumstances regarding the search that was made in Bimini and the one now being made in Broad Creek Channel. Now, just what the cause of this is, I don’t know! I had been in hopes that, if there was some cause in the actions of some of those seeking, it would be brought out through the suggestion that was given when the last information was gotten. This is what I meant by BEGINNING ALL OVER AGAIN. However, I must say it has been my experience from the first: Seldom, if ever, does it point out faults in others, unless the individual asks such a question directly. Rather does it seek to give each and every individual the plan or the model for living that will direct their ways and thoughts in the correct channel. In other words - all of the information is constructive, rather than derogatory in any way or manner.
But I’m sure we’ll work everything out alright, and our whole experience will be helpful and beneficial to each and every one of us, for each is given the opportunity to contact the Force and the Channel through which they may serve the better, and if the fault lies in an individual, in the application, they become the losers, rather than those who construct through the same information.
Let us hear from you from time to time. You know we all feel very much interested in each and every individual there, and are anxious to hear from you whenever you have the opportunity to drop us a line.
Mrs. Cayce and Miss Gladys ask to be remembered to Mrs. [5571] and [4477], and with kindest personal regards, I am
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce [EC:GD]
R3. 3/28/27 Mr. [943]‘s letter: “We made another search for the treasure at Broad Creek Channel and found nothing. That the treasure is well hidden is a well established fact. We will send further information today or tonight with reference to what was done.”
R4. 3/30/27 EC’s ltr. to Mr. [943]:
Dear Mr. [943]
I’m just in receipt of your wire, [No copy in file] and will take this reading at the first opportunity - which I suppose will be Friday afternoon. I certainly don’t understand that situation, but I’m in hopes that we will be able to clear it up - for I feel very sure that it must BE there somewhere. I can’t understand why we haven’t been able to locate it.
While we were in Miami we made a few snapshots. Thought possibly Mrs. [5571] and [4477] would like to have some of them. You will find a few enclosed, herewith.
Let us hear from you whenever you have the opportunity. Please remember us to all.
With kindest personal regards, I am
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce [EC:GD]
