HLC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
-
EC: Yes, we have the body, [2430].
-
As we find, in many respects conditions are very well in the general physical forces of this body. But there are those specific conditions which arise from a general weakness, localized in the system through those conditions arising from the cold that first weakened the body.
-
Then, with neglect, a catarrhal condition developed that has affected the sensory forces; especially the Eustachian tubes, - the hearing, the eyes, and the throat at times.
-
These as we find are the areas most affected; though a general disturbance that spreads from same at times causes inconveniences for the body.
-
We find that lesions have formed along the Eustachian tubes. If the body would take the time to have the specific applications to remove these through osteopathic finger surgery, and then sufficient rest, with the continued treatments to eliminate and prevent further adherence or adhesions, we would gain a great deal of benefit to the hearing, to the vision, and to those conditions arising in the digestive forces FROM the effects of these poisons in the system that undo, or make a tendency towards a bad metabolism.
-
As we find, the one that would be BETTER for this would be such as Richardson in Norfolk, Virginia. True, there are many others that may do well, but if the body would gain the best, and cut down those disturbances that are continuing to cause the inflammation to the sensory forces, it needs the rest, as well as the change in environ and surroundings.
-
Do that.
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) What is the condition of the blood supply and the various organs of the body? (A) As indicated, these suffer from the toxic forces that are produced upon the blood supply by the effect of these poisons being absorbed, as well as becoming activative upon the digestive fluids at times.
-
(Q) How often should the finger surgery treatments be given? (A) There would be first the preparation for same, and then the FIRST operative measures, and then the periods sufficient for the rest of the treatments of a general as well as of a specific nature. These would require, of course, at least two periods of about three to four weeks each.
-
(Q) That would be including the rest period? (A) That IS the rest period!
-
(Q) Any suggestion for diet during the period of treatments? (A) This would be better outlined by the one making the applications. For, this should be changed to an ELIMINATING diet, you see.
Do these, if we would bring the better conditions for this body.
- We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 1/29/41 [2430]‘s ltr. to Dr. Richardson:
Dr. M. L. Richardson, Bankers Trust Bldg., Norfolk, Virginia
Dear Doctor Richardson:
I am herewith enclosing the report of the reading given to me by Edgar Cayce. Mr. Cayce suggests that I have you treat me for this ailment, but I am sorry that it is impossible, as I am a traveling salesman on the road most of the time in Western territories.
I would appreciate it very much if you will give me the name of some good osteopathic physician whom you could recommend to do this work, here in Cleveland.
I would also appreciate your giving me the following information:-
In the answer to question number 2 -
How long would the “preparation for treatment” take?
How long a rest would be required between the periods of treatment?
What is the nature of this rest period - confinement to bed, home, or merely cessation of treatment?
How many treatments should be necessary?
What is meant by the word “surgery” in this connection? Actual surgical operation?
Thanking you in advance for your courtesy in answering these questions, I beg to remain,
Your very truly, [2430]
R2. 2/5/41 GD’s ltr. to [2430]:
Dear Mr. [2430]:
Your letter of the 29th addressed to Dr. Richardson of Norfolk has been sent to me for answer.
I am sorry that you do not find it possible to come to Dr.
Richardson. As you notice, the Reading indicated that a rest from your work would also be beneficial in connection with the treatments recommended.
The answers to your questions regarding the length of time involved would have to be given by the physician after he examines you. As I understand it, various osteopathic surgeons have various methods.
I am giving you the names of two such physicians in Cleveland, as we have had two people go to them who were not able to come to Dr. Richardson. However, we do not know either of these men and cannot recommend them. I suggest that you go and talk to one or the other, or both, and use your own judgment about taking the treatments. One of these doctors so discouraged the lady who went to him that she did not feel able to go ahead with his treatments. The other one, I understand, is still treating the patient who went to him…and we don’t have a final report on the case as yet.
Dr. R. D. Voorhees and Dr. Clarence V. Kerr
both of 1220 Huron Road, The Cleveland Osteopathic Clinic.
Trusting you will let us know your decision in the matter, and that your results will prove worth while, I am
Sincerely, [signed] Gladys Davis Secretary to Mr. Cayce
P.S. I’d like to say that we think Dr. Richardson is the best man in this particular field of treating.
