ILLITERATE MAN BECOMES A DOCTOR WHEN HYPNOTIZED
Strange Power Shown by Edgar Cayce Puzzles Physicians.
The medical fraternity of the country is taking a lively
interest in the strange power said to be possessed by Edgar
Cayce of Hopkinsville, Ky., to diagnose difficult diseases
while in a semi-conscious state, though he has not the
slightest knowledge of medicine when not in this condition.
During a visit to California last Summer Dr. W. H. Ketchum,
who was attending a meeting of the National Society of
Homeopathic Physicians, had occasion to mention the young
man's case and was invited to discuss it at a banquet
attended by about thirty-five of the doctors of the
Greek letter fraternity given at Pasadena.
Dr. Ketchum made a speech of considerable length, giving an
explanation of the strange psychic powers manifested by Cayce
during the last four years, during which time he has been
more or less under his observation. The speech created
such widespread interest among those present that one of the
leading Boston medical men who heard his speech invited Dr.
Ketchum to prepare a paper as a part of the programme of
the September meeting of the American Society of Clinical
Research. Dr. Ketchum sent the paper, but did not go to
Boston. The paper was read by Henry E. Harrower, M.D., of
Chicago, a contributor to The Journal of the American Medical
Association, published in Chicago. Its presentation created
a sensation, and almost before Dr. Ketchum knew that the
paper had been given to the press he was deluged with
letters and telegrams inquiring about the strange case.
It is well enough to add that Dr. Wesley H. Ketchum is a
reputable physician of high standing and successful practice
in the homeopathic school of medicine. He possesses a
classical education, is by nature of a scientific turn, and
is a graduate of one of the leading medical institutions of
the country. He is vouched for by orthodox physicians in
both Kentucky and Ohio, in both of which states he is well
known. In Hopkinsville, where his home is, no physician of
any school stands higher, though he is still a young man on
the shady side of Dr. Osler's deadline of 40. Dr. Ketchum
wishes it distinctly understood that his presentation of
the subject is purely ethical, and that he attempts no
explanation of what must be classed as mysterious mental
phenomena.
Dr. Ketchum is not the only physician who has had the
opportunity to observe the workings of Mr. Cayce's
subconscious mind. For nearly ten years his strange power
has been known to local physicians of all the recognized
schools. An explanation of the case is best understood from
Dr. Ketchum's description in his paper read in Boston a few
days ago, which follows:
"About four years ago I made the acquaintance of a young
man 28 years old, who had the reputation of being a 'freak.'
They said he told wonderful truths while he was asleep. I,
being interested, immediately began to investigate, and as I
was 'from Missouri,' I had to be shown.
"And truly, when it comes to anything psychical, every layman
is a disbeliever from the start, and most of our chosen
profession will not accept anything of a psychic nature,
hypnotism, mesmerism, or what not, unless vouched for by
some M.D. away up in the profession and one whose orthodox
standing is unquestioned.
"My subject simply lies down and folds his arms, and by
auto-suggestion goes to sleep. While in this sleep, which
to all intents and purposes is a natural sleep, his objective
mind is completely inactive and only his subjective is
working.
"By suggestions he becomes unconscious to pain of any
sort, and, strange to say, his best work is done when
he is seemingly 'dead to the world.'
"I next give him the name of my subject and the exact
location of same, and in a few minutes he begins to talk
as clearly and distinctly as any one. He usually goes into
minute detail in diagnosing a case, and especially if it be a
very serious case.
"His language is usually of the best, and his psychologic
terms and description of the nervous anatomy would do
credit to any professor of nervous anatomy, and there is to
faltering in his speech and all his statements are clear and
concise. He handles the most complex 'jaw breakers' with
as much ease as any Boston physician, which to me is quite
wonderful, in view of the fact that while in his normal
state he is an illiterate man, especially along the line of
medicine, surgery, or pharmacy, of which he knows nothing.
"After going into detail with a diagnosis and giving name,
address, etiology, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of a
case, he is awakened by the suggestion that he will see this
person no more, and in a few minutes will be awake. Upon
questioning him, he knows absolutely nothing that he said,
or whose case he was talking about. I have used him in about
100 cases, and to date have never known of any errors in
diagnosis, except in two cases where he described a child in
each case by the same name and who resided in the same house
as the one wanted. He simply described the wrong person.
"Now this description, although rather short, is no myth,
but a firm reality. The regular profession scoff at anything
reliable coming from this source, because the majority of
them are in the rut and have never taken to anything not
strictly orthodox.
"The cases I have used him in have, in the main, been the
rounds before coming to my attention, and in six important
cases which had been diagnosed as strictly surgical he stated
that no such condition existed, and outlined treatment which
was followed with gratifying results in every case.
"Once case, a little girl, daughter of a gentleman prominent
in the American Book Company of Cincinnati, had been
diagnosed by the best men in the Central States as incurable.
One diagnoses from my man completely changed the situation,
and within three months she was restored to perfect health,
and is to this day.
"Now in closing, you may ask why has a man with such powers
not been before the public and received the endorsement of
the profession, one and all, without fear or favor? I can
truly answer by saying they are not ready to receive such as
yet. Even Christ himself was rejected, for 'unless they see
signs and wonders they will not believe.'
"I would appreciate the advice and suggestions of my
co-workers in this broad field as to the best method of
putting my man in the way of helping suffering humanity, and
would be glad to have you send me the name and address of
your most complex case and I will try to prove what I have
endeavored to describe."
In further explanation, Dr. Ketchum gives this statement as
obtained from the young man himself while asleep when asked
to describe his own powers and the source of his mystifying
knowledge:
"Our subject, while under auto-hypnosis, on one occasion,
explained as follows:
"When asked to give the source of his knowledge, he being
at this time in the sub-conscious state, he stated: 'Edgar
Cayce's mind is amenable to suggestion, the same as all other
subconscious minds, but in addition thereto it has the power
to interpret to the objective mind of others what it acquires
from the sub-conscious mind of other individuals of the same
kind. The subconscious mind forgets nothing. The conscious
mind receives the impression from without and transfers all
thoughts to the sub-conscious, where it remains even though
the conscious be destroyed.' He described himself in the
third person, saying further that his sub-conscious mind is
in direct communication with all other sub-conscious minds,
and is capable of interpreting through his objective mind
and imparting impressions received to other objective minds,
gathering in this way all knowledge possessed by millions of
other sub-conscious minds."
In all, young Cayce has given more than 1,000 readings,
but has never turned his wonderful powers to his pecuniary
advantage, although many people have been restored to health
by following out the course of treatment prescribed in his
readings while in a state of hypnosis.
President James Hyslop of the American Psychic Society
has made suggestions in regard to the development of the
subject's powers. Other psychologists in Europe and America
are seeking information, and Dr. Ketchum's plan is to have
a committee of scientists of the highest standing come to
Hopkinsville and investigate in a most rigid manner and
make a report as to the truth of what is claimed but not
understood. That this will be done in the near future is
certain. Many men in this city have attended Mr. Cayce's
readings and are ready to testify to the truth of the
representations made.
Recently Mr. Cayce was given for a second interpretation the
case of a man [
4970] living in Indiana, and when asked by his
father to tell whether he had read the case before and to
describe the present condition, he said:
"Yes, I have had him before. Some little difference in his
case this time. Resting easy now; heart action not so bad;
rest produced by an anaesthetic. We find this body suffering
from smothering spells, short breath, depression of the
heart, and very weak at times. Pains in the head, especially
through the base of the head, the first and second cervical,
and front part of the head and eyes; circulation is very
poor.
"In the first and second cervical we have a lesion there
which is from the reflex action from the pain we have below,
and gives off pains to the head at times and especially
to the face and facial muscles. This all comes through a
sympathetic nervous system.
"Now, at the seventh and eighth to the tenth dorsal
vertebrae, reaching the solar plexus, we find a bad lesion,
especially where it comes in contact with the nerves
governing the heart and hepatic circulation just below
the left lung. The trouble first began here. We see a
congestion caused from a cold in the left lung contracted
from the exterior, producing a choking up of the lung and
treated locally and externally on the side.
"This filling up caused not enough air in the lungs and
produced the lesion we have just above the solar plexus or
nerve centre which controls the whole digestive organs of the
body, and the congestion we have here in the lumbar region
has produced locomotor-ataxia and a withering away of the
limbs; especially is this most noticeable in the right
limb, and producing a very bad state in the pelvic region.
"We find the same thing through the circulatory system of the
blood. The blood is very weak; the red corpuscles are more
numerous than they should be, with not enough of the white
tissue to build up the body. Where we have a loss of white
blood tissue we have the same in the gray matter in the nerve
force.
"Not all the nerve force of the body has been destroyed. We
have weak and then strong spells, because the circulation is
weak, especially the capillary, with a heart action strong
at times, producing palpitation of the heart and smothering
spells, dizziness of the head, and the same of the solar
plexus system, causing the emitting from the stomach of
the things taken into it.
"We have no organic heart trouble and very little of the
lungs, but some enlargement of the liver. In the left lobe
of the liver we find a granular substance from medicines
taken in through the stomach and bowels. The liver is not
doing its work in throwing off the bile and waste matter of
the body. That produces the enlargement of the liver.
"We have altogether a very weak and bedridden man, but he
can be cured. To correct this trouble, first reduce the
inflammation, then, by giving plenty of pure water, with
alkaline treatment, the acid will be reduced. A tincture of
iron for toning up the digestive organs and blood, and static
electrical treatment along the spine, not very strong along
the upper cervical, for this is near the brain, but very
strong through the dorsal and lumbar regions. Give digitalis
and strychnine to tone up the nerves and heart. With plenty
of rest and fresh air we will have the man improved."
Edgar Cayce was born in Christian County, Kentucky, March 18,
1877. His father is Leslie B. Cayce, who was at that time a
farmer, but who moved to Hopkinsville in 1894 and has since
engaged in the insurance business. The son was precocious as
a child, and what education he has was received in the common
schools in the country.
His father says that even in his early childhood he
manifested a strange aptness in his studies after coming
out of a sleep. It was his father's custom to teach him his
lessons at night, and sometimes he would fail to solve the
problems presented and would say, "Papa, let me sleep a while
and I will know it better," and often, reclining in a rocking
chair, he would drop off into a little nap, and when he awoke
his mind would be clear and he would know perfectly what
he had previously been unable to grasp. Sometimes he would
go to bed at night puzzled in his mind over some difficult
lesson, and would rise in the morning with the problem solved
in his mind. This became noticeable when he was not more
than 10 years old.
He was about 17 years of age when the family left the farm,
and his first employment was in a book store, where he
remained for four years, and then went to Louisville for one
year, returning to Hopkinsville to accept a place in a dry
goods store. Later he associated himself with his father in
the fraternal insurance business.
Soon afterward, while visiting a neighboring town on
business, he was taken with a severe headache. He sought
a doctor, who prescribed for his ailment, and, securing the
medicine, he took it all day without securing relief. In the
evening he returned to his home about 9 o'clock very ill. A
doctor was sent for, who gave him an emetic. He was ill for
several days, and one morning awoke to find that he could
talk only in a whisper. He remained in that condition for
nearly a year, his health otherwise being good.
Being unable to talk, he became a photographer, which
business he has continued to follow. During this year a
hypnotist visited Hopkinsville, and for several nights gave
public performances. At one of his meetings young Cayce
accepted an invitation to go to the platform and be
hypnotized. He proved to be an easy subject, and while in
a state of hypnosis was told to talk by the hypnotist, and
surprised everybody by speaking in a clear, strong voice.
Believing that it would benefit him he went again, but found
that his voice was restored only while he was in a trance.
Some time afterward a local man found that he was a hypnotist
and began to experiment with young Cayce, and finally
conceived the idea of asking Cayce to diagnose his own case.
One day the young man asked his father to go with him, as the
student was going to try to restore his voice.
The young man was put into a trance and asked to tell what
he saw wrong about his own throat. He said there was to be
seen a congestion of the vocal chords. The man said: "Watch
it now and see if you cannot increase the circulation." He
replied, "Yes, that's easy." He talked in his natural voice,
saying "It is gradually going away," then, "It is nearly
gone," and finally said, "It is all right now."
He was then aroused, and after clearing his throat of an
accumulation of phlegm found he could talk as well as he
ever could.
This cure created much comment, but after a time it ceased to
be talked about, some even holding that the loss of voice was
a temporary affliction that has passed off as it had come and
of its own accord.
In the succeeding years Mr. Cayce had occasional recurrences
of the throat trouble, usually when suffering from a cold,
but the loss of voice was of short duration. About this
time he was urged to take up diagnosing as a business,
but he refused to consider it, though he frequently gave
readings without profit to himself.
During the last ten years he has followed the business of
a photographer in several cities, but has been a good part
of the time here in Hopkinsville. About eight years ago he
married Miss Evans of this city, and they have one child, a
boy, now seven years old.
At first Mr. Cayce was hypnotized by another, but he now goes
to sleep of his own accord by what Dr. Ketchum has called
auto-hypnosis. He comes out of the trance at the suggestion
of some one else, usually his father, who has assisted in his
development more than anyone else.
His experience does not fatigue or exhaust him. On the
contrary it seems to refresh him. Sometimes he will be
feeling tired and will take up a case to read, dropping off
to sleep for the purpose, and when aroused will feel greatly
refreshed.
The question of distance is not important, as he has given
successful readings with his subject a thousand miles away.
Mr. Cayce will not discuss the names of his patients, if they
may be called patients, but says he is ready to submit any
necessary facts in aiding the fullest investigation.

9/43 Margueritte Harmon Bro's article which appeared in
Coronet Magazine:
MIRACLE MAN OF VIRGINIA BEACH
As mystifying to their possessor as to those who read his
story, are the strange psychic powers of Edgar Cayce.
It started when a friend told a friend who told me. My
friend is a young lieutenant named Steve, home from overseas
and going back. He is quick on the uptake and not generally
gullible. Also he is in love. Her name is Betty. One of
those fragile-looking blondes who is really as tough-fibered
as a young sapling. But suddenly she developed arthritis,
the devastating sort which ties one in agony. Bridal showers
and gay young friends gave place to a darkened room and
nurses. Doctors tried everything, but when Steve came home
he found her thus.
It was then that his friend told him about a psychic named
Edgar Cayce living at Virginia Beach. A psychic who, in a
state of trance, diagnoses any kind of illness and reports
his findings in technical language which he himself can not
understand when awake; prescribing all sorts of treatment -
medical, surgical, osteopathic.
Once, Steve related to me, when a doctor in Kentucky took a
reading for a patient with obstinate leg sores, Mr. Cayce
prescribed Smoke Oil. The doctor had never heard of such a
thing nor had any of the physicians and druggists he
consulted. A second reading named the drug store in
Louisville where the Smoke Oil could be found, but when the
doctor wired for it the druggist wired back, "Never heard of
it." A third reading explained that Smoke Oil was on a
certain shelf in a back room behind bottles marked so-and-so.
This time the manager wired, "Found it." The bottle was old
and the company which made it was out of business, but the
label said, "Oil of Smoke" and it worked its cure.
"For Betty I'd give anything a try - champagne baths,
poultice of bumble bees or psychics," Steve said. And packed
off to Virginia Beach. When he came home he told me his
tale:
Mrs. Cayce met him at the door of a simple house and took him
into the living room where Mr. Cayce rose and shook hands.
He was tall, lean, a little on the shy side and didn't look
like Steve's idea of a psychic.
"Betty is a very special person," he heard his voice
explaining.
"They all are," Mr. Cayce said. "That's why people come."
"She's very ill," Steve began.
"Usually they don't come except as a last resort," Mr. Cayce
returned. Then the clock struck half-past ten, and he
started for the door. "It's time now for the reading," he
told Steve. "Shall we see what it says about her?"
So Steve followed him through the dining room into an office
where he met Miss Gladys Davis, the secretary. Miss Gladys,
tall, blond and forthright, had been in the office for 17
years. Steve followed her into the study and must have
looked surprised at the simplicity of the surroundings
because Mr. Cayce said, "This is all there is to it."
Mr. Cayce walked over to the couch, took off his coat,
loosened his collar, and lay down. His wife spread an afghan
over him. No shades were drawn, no incense lighted. In no
more than two or three minutes Mr. Cayce appeared to be
sleeping quietly and his wife gave him Betty's name and
address. Steve said he had a moment of feeling all
perspiration and Adam's apple; they had forgotten to ask a
thing about Betty's illness; no history, no symptoms,
nothing.
Then Mr. Cayce began to talk. His southern accent was gone
and he spoke precisely as he repeated Betty's name and
address. "Yes, we have the body," he said: "The young woman
is in bed in a large room with windows facing west and
south." That was Betty's room all right and Steve couldn't
help being a little excited. Mr. Cayce went on, "This body
is suffering from arthritis caused by a combination of
several factors." Then he gave a technical discussion whose
medical terms didn't mean a thing to Steve. Miss Gladys'
pencil flew. After 15 minutes of diagnosis Mr. Cayce began
to talk of treatment. "We would be very mindful of the
diet..." One medicine was indicated; a certain kind of bath.
Finally he said, "We are ready for questions."
Mrs. Cayce turned to Steve and he asked several questions
which she repeated and Mr. Cayce answered fully. Then he
said, "We are finished." The room was still while he slept
on for perhaps a minute until his wife gave him directions
for waking.
Steve said he couldn't think of a thing to say. The whole
affair was incredible and at the same time it did not seem
mysterious while it was happening. When he was about to
leave he said he wished he knew more about the whole
proposition.
Mr. Cayce said he wished he did too. He said quite a few
psychologists had been down there, beginning with Hugo
Munsterberg from Harvard. They talked about the
superconscious and the subconscious and told Cayce that when
he was in a state of trance he dipped into a free-flowing
stream of thought. Mr. Cayce said maybe they were right but
personally he felt like the old lady who read Bunyan's
'Pilgrim's Progress' with Explanatory Notes by Scott; at the
end she declared it was all perfectly clear except the
explanatory notes. As a matter of fact, Mr. Cayce said, he
didn't trust his own power for years. He was afraid he might
prescribe something that would kill someone. But finally he
came to have faith that it would work for good as long as he
tried to help people honestly.
WELL, THAT was Steve's story. And he wanted me to help
persuade Betty's doctors to try Mr. Cayce's advice. But
being a woman on the stubborn side of 40, I had to be
convinced first hand. That's how I happened to go to
Virginia Beach myself.
Mr. Cayce seemed neither pleased nor displeased to see
another person bent on investigation. He gave me a brief
biography which began when he was a small boy in Kentucky
finding out he could learn his lessons by sleeping on a
textbook and waking with a photographic memory of its entire
contents. At 10, he discovered the Bible and decided to read
it through once for every year of his life. With those 10
years to make up, he did a lot of Bible reading and a lot of
thinking about God. Which may account for a vision he had at
12, in which an angel who resembled his mother asked what he
wanted most in life. When he said his greatest desire was to
be able to help people, the vision promised him that he
could.
Once he became very ill after being hit by a baseball and he
diagnosed his own trouble in his sleep. Later, when a member
of the family was ill, his father thought Edgar might be able
to diagnose that difficulty also. So Edgar went to sleep and
prescribed. The local doctor began to rely on him. The boy
struggled to keep people from knowing about the "gift," not
wanting to be considered queer. He took up photography as a
business; he married and moved away, but he was followed by
hometown doctors who knew his power. His own wife was given
up to die of tuberculosis and as a last extremity, he turned
to a "reading" and received specific directions which, over a
period of time, worked her complete recovery. After that his
psychic ability became his major interest.
Physical ailments are not the only problems Mr. Cayce
diagnoses. Take Miss B, for instance. Fifteen years ago she
was in charge of the telegraph desk in one of the busiest
spots in New York City. One day two men pushed through the
crowd at the counter and each handed her a message. She
looked at the one in her left hand and then at the one in her
right. "Look here!" she said, "Do you two know each other?"
They did not. "But you're both wiring Mr. Cayce. Who is he?
So they told her about him. In time she sent for a reading.
It told her to give up her present occupation and get into
commercial art. Some of it was very apt, she wrote, thanking
Mr. Cayce, but at 36 she could not give up a good salary for
an unknown venture. But eventually she talked things over
with her family and decided to go to art school. Her teacher
says she has one stroke which not an artist in a thousand is
able to get. Her last letter reports that from the day she
took her first job in the new field, 10 years ago, she has
never made less in a month than she formerly made in a year.
Over the mantelpiece in the Virginia Beach home is a portrait
of Mr. Cayce, and back of that picture another reading. One
day a New York business man, who had worked out his problems
through the readings for two decades, invited 500 persons to
hear about Mr. Cayce's work. He told the story of a friend
who had been committed to Bellevue hospital as incurably
insane, but who had been restored to complete well-being by
following the readings.
After the meeting a young woman tremblingly approached Mr.
Cayce and said, "My sister is in a strait jacket at a state
hospital. She was an artist and went suddenly insane." Mr.
Cayce gave a reading. After some months the girl was much
improved and later recovered completely. Then she came to
thank Mr. Cayce and the first picture she painted was his.
Sometimes the readings have a definite sense of humor and
what sounds like a fund of common sense. A recent reading
for a woman in Maine opens, "Why do you ask us to comment on
your doctor's diet sheet when you have not yet read it
yourself?" But the shortest reading on record is for Mr.
Cayce himself, given one day when he was feeling miserable.
"You haven't done what we told you to the last time. We are
through."
Mr. Cayce carries on much of his own correspondence. A
typical day brings an assortment of letters. A woman in
Kansas City reports that she read a story about Mr. Cayce
"with some anxiety. I was afraid you were going to be dead
at the end of it." Another woman berates him for making a
charge for his services; why should she pay her good money to
a man who had a special gift from God? A man with a huge war
contract thanks him for locating a particular kind of crystal
in Brazil.
But most letters come from persons who need help for illness,
or for vocational and family problems. A good many are
thank-you's warm with gratitude. One of the best letters
comes from an 81 year old lady who wants a reading: "I have
just one question. How am I doing?"
With such a following, why isn't Mr. Cayce one of the richest
men alive? Probably one reason is because he charges only a
nominal fee for readings and will have nothing to do with
get-rich-quick schemes. His neighbors attest that he has had
plenty of offers. A cotton merchant offered him a hundred
dollars a day for two weeks if he would give daily readings
on the cotton market. Although he needed the money sorely,
he refused. Whenever someone tries to use his gift for
unsocial gain, Mr. Cayce says that he immediately detects the
fact because he wakens from his trance with a violent
headache.
Each year along toward the end of June, there is a gathering
at Virginia Beach to which everyone who has ever had a
reading is welcome. Called the Association for Research and
Enlightenment, the group represents all parts of the country.
This year the assembly was small, perhaps 60 in all. Members
were well dressed and above average in education. Probably
one-fifth were professional men and women.
Open readings are a part of the Association's program. At
one open reading on current affairs, grave concern was
expressed for equality of opportunity among divergent races
in this country if we want peace abroad. Sometimes these
open readings are definite prophecies, as when the war was
foretold five years before it happened - including the names
of our enemies. But more often they were filled with
admonitions. "When labor becomes united, capital may fear."
For a week I listened to these readings, which come twice a
day. Nobody likes to have his favorite ruts disturbed. I
like to have my conclusions arranged in neat patterns. Hence
when I cannot explain a thing I've seen, I attempt to explain
it away. But in this instance, I am tempted to tell Steve to
tell Betty's doctor about a man who drove up to Mr. Cayce's
door and said, "You don't know me, Mr. Cayce, and I don't
know you, but I'm a telegraph operator at Norfolk and for 15
years I've been handling wires to you. Now I'm in trouble
and last night I said to my wife:
"That many people can't be crazy."
