Time of Reading 3:00 P. M. …, Pa.

1. EC: Now, we find there are some abnormal conditions that may be corrected in the physical forces in this body. They have to do with the functioning of organs and the effect as has been produced by this condition in the system.

2. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, [4120] we are speaking of. First:

3. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, while the quantity and quality of the blood supply is very good, the pressure and the circulation as controlled through the nerve system and functioning of organs as is controlled through specific conditions and nerve system produce an abnormal condition in the system through the blood supply. Not that in the heart itself, nor in the lungs, but rather the organs of digestion and the liver and kidneys in their functioning.

4. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, we find there are centers that have become involved in conditions, and these bring distress to the system and produce the reaction in functioning organs and in the nerve system. These are the nerve centers thus affected and producing the effect in the system: Those of the sacral and ilium plexus. Those both in the upper and lower pneumogastric, and in the hypogastric center. The ducts of the lower end of hypogastric in pelvis and affecting the kidneys in their functioning show the greater distress in the system, and the pressure produced there causes more distress, though often in reflex action. In the centers in cerebrospinal nerve system that these inflamed branches affect are in the fourth lumbar, and the tenth and eleventh dorsal centers, as also reflexly these affect the nerves of the brachial plexus. Hence the tingling sensation produced when reaction occurs in the system in the extremities, both of upper and lower portion of body. This, however, being reflex rather than that of direct cause of conditions. Sympathetic nerve system becomes involved in condition through hypogastric and perineurial nerve action.

5. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS THEMSELVES, those of the head or the sensory organism show the reaction rather than of specific conditions involve in the condition that exists in system.

6. Lungs, bronchials, larynx and the organs affected by the ductless glands in upper portion show how the nerve system attempts to equalize circulation and nerve supply with this subnormal or abnormal, though both occur in the system produced from the condition existing in the ilium and sacral plexuses.

7. In the lungs the clarification in the pulmonary functioning show the pressure created in blood supply and affects the arterial circulation, though no organic conditions.

8. Digestion affected through hypogastric. Hence the distress caused in lower end of stomach at times. The organs of digestion function fairly normal for condition, though NOT normal.

9. In the hepatic circulation we find the cause or the seat of the trouble in the system, so all glands and tissue that relate to the functioning of intestinal digestion, and of the circulation created by the kidneys and the functioning of the glands in pelvis, due to condition in nerve system and hepatic circulation cause distress and irritation to the nerves that direct connect with the perineurial and the hypogastric centers. The kidneys function abnormal, for the emunctories show the taxing and the over excretions often bringing distress even to the organs themselves, though not organic conditions as yet.

10. R E L I E F: To bring then the relief to the body would be to create the condition in system as to cause the equalization in circulation and of the normal functioning of the organs affecting the intestinal digestion, nerve system and hepatic circulation, relieving the strain and the stress of the condition.

11. Take then in the system those properties as would be found in this:

To one gallon of rain water we would add:

Yellow Dock Root…2 ounces, Yellow Root…2 ounces, Black Snake Root…2 ounces, Buchu Leaves…30 grains, Mandrake Root…10 grains, Bark of Sassafras…1 ounce.

12. Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to one quart. Strain. While warm, add one ounce of Balsam of Tulu, and one dram of Balm of Gilead cut or dissolved in four ounces of grain alcohol.

13. The dose would be teaspoonful four times each day. Also on each fifth day give one teaspoonful of this:

Tincture of Valerian…2 ounces, Iodide of Potassium…5 grains, Bromide Potassium…20 grains, Elixir Calisaya…2 ounces, Oil of Peppermint…20 minims, Fluid Extract Cayenne…2 minims,

and the diet should be watched closely, taking those properties that will create stimulation to blood supply, especially nerve building forces in blood. Meats only that of wild game or fish. Vegetable matter that grows above the ground, and cereals with fruits, especially pears and apples, and the vibrations of the massage of the neuropathic forces.

14. Do this. We will find the condition will be corrected in this body within sixty days.

B1. 10/5/23 Son [4121]‘s letter:

Dayton, Ohio

Mr. […] [Mrs. [4120]‘s husband] …, Pa.

Dear Father:-

I have just received your letter and am sorry to know that Mother [4120] is not better. While here, I have come in contact with a gentleman, Mr. Edgar Cayce, who possesses one of the most wonderful God given powers I have ever seen manifested through man. I have seen some of the wonderful results accomplished through the following of the Psychic Readings given by him. Now Dad, you will recall the many discussions we have had, pro and con, along this line and I want you to please take my suggestion, for I know what it will mean to all of us. My first thought was of Mother, and I see no reason why Mr. Cayce could not be able to tell Mother just what is wrong and what would be the best way to effect a cure.

Since Psychic Readings are and have been, in the last few years, attracting so much attention throughout the world, we must stop and give due consideration to this step in man’s progress. Further, to see the works being done by Mr. Cayce, and to see the real spirit he puts into his work, as well as his desire, not for worldly wealth or fame but to assist mankind in overcoming physical ailments, is enough to convince me that he is on God’s side.

It is indeed strange, at first thought, to think that Mr. Cayce could give a reading for a person who, at the time, may be many miles away, yet these readings being given while in the subconscious state, or the connection being made between the conscious and subconscious minds, is in reality only the result of the adherence to another natural law, which has been in effect since the beginning of time.

Mr. Cayce will only give a reading when it is desired by the person for whom it is to be given, or from someone directly responsible for the physical and spiritual environment of the body. Talk this over with Mother and fill in the enclosed application, returning it in time for the reading to be made on the date and hour noted in the corner of the application.

As to the price for the readings, he does not make a charge but because of the strain, he is only able to make two of these readings in one day, and it being necessary to have a competent stenographer and an assistant, I am sure it requires a donation of at least twenty-five or thirty dollars to meet this expense. This should be sent with the application. Then, after you see the real results, you may attempt to pay for the reading but I am sure, from what I have seen, that the work and its benefits can never be measured by dollars and cents, and just think what this will mean to all of us for Mother to regain her health.

Be sure and let me hear from you, as I want to be present when this is made, if it is possible.

With very best love to all,

Your son, [4121]
