Time of Reading Residence of […], 12:15 P. M. Dayton Savings Time. …, Alabama.

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.

3. Now we find, while this body is in the developing stage, we have some co-genital conditions, and we have specific conditions that disturb and cause distress in the body. We also have functioning organs disturbed by these conditions, and this gives then the disturbing forces all combined in the body.

4. Now, these are the conditions as we find them in this body at the present time. First:

5. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find above the normal for the body in its temperature and in the pressure as created by conditions in the hepatic circulation. The formation then of this temperature in the system carried by the streptococci in the intestinal tract and its disturbance, and in the hepatic circulation. Hence the languidness to the whole system and to the vital forces in the body. In the division in blood supply we find the lack of that element necessary to produce coagulation in the body in a perfect coordinating. Hence this we find is of the co-genital disposition, or pre-disposition, created by conditions existing in the body of each.

6. In the specific conditions as exist in the body, they have to do with the nerve system, especially in this impingement as has been created in the lumbar region. This affecting the kidneys direct in that the distress in blood supply, and in the circulation through the hypogastric forces, as connect between the hepatic circulation and the hypogastric circulation to the kidneys, through this strain or laxness as is produced, the inflammation finds more of its regress from the system through these conditions, for the pre-disposition of the blood supply, the pre-disposition as created in the system, finds its weakness through this portion of the body, and with this impinged forces in the lumbar region this finds its manifestation in the organ. Hence we have then the taking up of the lymph supplying forces and the secretions as supplied in the intestinal tract, through the condition in blood supply or temperature, and we find the reaction of same in kidneys, bladder, colon, the liver being dormant in its action, or of eliminating properly; hence throwing the distress or strain on kidneys, and by their weakened condition producing the condition.

7. In the functioning of the other organs of the body, all under strain of these conditions, yet functioning as near normal as could be given under this strain.

8. R E L I E F, then to bring the better condition for the body, and to remove the condition as is exemplified in the physical forces, we would first correct by neuropathic, or gentle osteopathic adjustments, those conditions in the lumbar region, equalizing the circulation and reducing the temperature by such conditions, for we have mechanical conditions to take place in the system, that this strain may be removed from the organs affected, and from the hepatic circulation. The taking of medicinal properties alone only being the effects and not removing that causing the strain or allowing the body to develop in its normal forces. Well that the properties as have been given, and as show their effect in the system, be accorded the system to meet the needs until the adjustments and the equalization is set up in the body, for the condition in intestines, the condition in kidneys, must be removed from system, and that producing same must be brought to its normal.

9. We would give these same properties.

10. Take the body itself, physically, to those treatments as would be accorded by Elise L. Stone [N.D.], Montgomery, Alabama.

11. Do that, keeping the other conditions necessary. We will find we will bring the normal forces to this body, [711].

12. We are through.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 8/28/24 Mother’s ltr.: “Dr. Stone is splendid… [259] and I are taking tr. two a day and [711] one a day.”

R2. 8/30/24 “[711] is so much better, but am so distressed over [259]… Never saw anyone improve like [711] has, Dr. Stone’s treatment of her is visible.”

R3. 1/30/25 Dr. Elise L. Stone’s letter:

My dear Mr. Cayce.

“Enclosed you will find kodak of child who was considered incurable when they had you give a reading. They carried out your instructions, and she is well. Saved, wonderful. May you live long and prosper in work like this. I will write you soon.”

“P.S. This picture of [711] was made two months after your instructions. She was said to have Bright’s disease and heart trouble.”

R4. 7/14/26 Mother’s ltr. to EC: “To say ‘Thank You’ for the readings that put my two girls well again is very small. Wish I could really do something worth while for you. Both children were in very bad shape physically, especially the baby who had not been able to walk for six weeks, though everything was being done for her medically. In the reading you referred me to Dr. E. L. Stone, Neuropath of Montgomery. I took them over for treatments (as treatment was advised for both). After the first treatment the baby walked a block. You can imagine how thankful and grateful I was, and by carrying out full instructions of the readings, the children are enjoying the best of health…”

R5. 11/28/26 Mother’s ltr. to EC: ”…[711] is celebrating her birthday, as per usual in BED. This time last year it was Scarlet Fever - this year it is Acidosis. What next? She has been looking so well and feeling so well - but Thursday at the dinner table she wouldn’t touch her dinner. We went to … in the afternoon and when we returned, waiting at the store for [3657] - here comes all she had in her. Sent for Lee Jones [Lee Jones, M.D.] yesterday. My efforts may have helped - but they were not as effective as his - gave white karo in water and orange juice - also glucose and soda - tablespoon - every half hour in crushed ice and now she can eat a little rice jelly and am to try her on casec milk today. She is singing away in the bed so she must feel better now…”

R6. 12/14/27 See 711-2 for appendicitis.

R7. See subsequent Ck. Physicals 711-3 and 711-4.

R8. 2/14/58 Mother’s reply to Questionnaire about her experience with the readings: “When [711] had pyelitis I took her to Dr. Elise L. Stone (who has passed on - 1947 I believe) and [711] has never had a return of the trouble.”

B1. 8/10/24 Mother, Mrs. [2457]‘s ltr.: “I went in town yesterday to see about the baby and the last specimen and blood test were the best yet. Dr. wants to have her tonsils removed about Oct., provided she improves as she has the past week. She weighed 21 pounds Aug. 7th… I think [711] has a temperature now - she just waked up - will tell shortly. Gave her a soda flush about 9:30 and she is still having results. Maybe after this her fever will leave… At 4 P.M. her temperature went up to 104 2/5ths, at 7:30 it was 102. Gave her a saline flush and a powder - hour later a dose of Castor Oil. Up came powder and oil, so just gave another dose of oil (4 hrs. later) she is sleeping…” [She requested rdgs. for [711] & [259].]
