Time of Reading 3:55 to 4:05 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Ohio. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes.

2. As we find, there has been little or nothing done for this body in the directions that have been indicated.

3. It is true that there is strength in denial, and strength in the power of affirming. But as we find, as has been indicated, if there would be those changes brought about for the body as indicated, greater possibilities and probabilities are for this body.

4. Ready for questions.

5. (Q) How can the idea of his following these treatments be most successfully presented to him? (A) Those that are closest may first broach the subject or make the body and those about them aware of the possibilities. And use ALL the means of those that may influence the body for THEM to become aware of the possibilities through such channels. But the conviction, the desire, the belief, the faith if you choose, must arise within the body itself desiring to make the attempt.

Whether from those who have sought the information, or from other sources of the family, ALL should be brought to bear in a consistent and in a PRAYERFUL manner only.

6. (Q) May the first approach be best made by [1173] [his brother-in-law], or by Mr. […]? (A) By letter first; and then by the assurance by letter from Mr. [1173]; then by the personal conversation with the entity by Mr. […].

7. (Q) Would it be advisable for Mr. […] or Mr. […], or both, to see the entity before or after discussion with [1173].

(A) These might come almost as cooperative one with another. Let there be the assurance from both of their faith or confidence in such, see?

8. (Q) If entity locates in vicinity of N.Y., is it advisable or not that his wife accompany him? (A) If it produces the better environ for the entity for the presence of the wife, by all means have it. If there is any resentment, or any desire on the part of either that it NOT be carried out, no.

9. (Q) Where should he locate in N.Y. vicinity to start and continue treatments? Bronxville, N.Y., N.Y. City apt. or hotel; Westfield, N.J., or a combination of localities? (A) This can best be determined by those when there has first been reached the desire on the part of [1546] as to what would be most in keeping with HIS desires, see?

For unless it can ALL be cooperative, then there will be resentments builded.

10. (Q) Would it be preferable to spend three weeks in N.Y. City for the treatments and the other three weeks in Bronxville? (A) This again will depend upon the body and its desire to make the trial, or the test - if they choose to put it in such a manner. He must DESIRE to be aided, he must desire to use it in the manner as would be in keeping with the entity’s wishes then.

11. (Q) Please give detailed menus and method of preparation of food for each meal. (A) These, as has been indicated, should be very much in keeping with whatever directed by whoever makes the administrations for the body, see? No fats, to be sure; but those things that would work together for the coordinating and cooperating of the activities of the administrations given, see?

Hence these should be RATHER under the direction of one that would give the administrations outlined.

12. (Q) Should Alcaroid be taken after each meal from the start? If so, for how long a period of time? (A) Should soon after the start, at least. From the start of the applications or treatments, at least. As indicated, take it a few days, leave off a few days, and then take again. Then so long as it is needed to make for the better assimilation and elimination, and to keep down those tendencies for gas and accumulations through the alimentary canal.

13. (Q) During period of treatments should entity be active in business or not? (A) It should not be ACTIVE. Rather be active MENTALLY, but not so much in business.

14. (Q) Is it advisable that osteopathic treatments suggested be taken as follows: Three the first week, three the second week, two the third week? (A) This, again, will VERY MUCH depend upon the response that the one administering same finds in the body. This if it can be helpful can also be OVERDONE; but sufficient to keep the reactions in the order as the manipulator administering the treatments finds the response of the body. Whether it is to be for the first three weeks three times a week, or the first week every day, or whether it is to be only twice a week throughout - this depends upon RESPONSE, see! This must be consistent as well as persistent.

And according to the faith of all, be it unto them!

15. We are through with this Reading.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 3/9/38 Letter from Mrs. [1158] to EC: ”…I am indeed grateful that you were able to get the information we were seeking for Mr. [1546]. He has been suffering for a year, but due to the fact that he was a Christian Scientist, I was unable to mention to him anything about your work. However, the suffering grew so intense, that at last his wife insisted that he go to an osteopath. The osteopath said he was in such a dreadful state that he insisted upon a general medical diagnosis before he would take the case. (This happened while I was away for 2 weeks with Mr. [1151]). When I returned, it appeared that X-rays, and other examinations at the hospital revealed nothing wrong, but the INTENSE PAIN CONTINUED. At this point I felt it was right to talk to his wife (my sister) about your work. She was interested and wanted a Reading immediately. She, also said she wanted to pay for it, but due to her husband’s illness she was low in cash, and could only pay $5.00 down, now. This amount I am enclosing, and will ask for the remainder to be charged to our account. (I felt it was well to let her pay for what she could, since she wanted to.) She said the doctors had found Mr. [1546] very difficult to get along with due to his Christian Science, and that she did not know whether she could talk to him about the Reading or not, because he took arbitrary streaks and would refuse to do things or try things.

“However, since talking with Gladys, possibly we can talk over the Reading with Dr. Green, the Osteopath, and ask him to get Mr. [1546] to follow the instructions. I am sure, one way or another we will help Mr. [1546] back to normal health, and back to his job. As a wife and six children are dependent upon him this is a vital thing to accomplish and he cannot continue much longer without help…”

R2. 2/16/39 Mr. [1546]‘s cousin obtained a Physical Reading for another cousin, Mr. [1822].

R3. 10/24/77 Mr. [1546]‘s grandson wrote requesting a copy of his grandfather’s reading.
