(Q) Morning of Friday,
1/20/28. I was in Nashville - went
down a road and into what looked like a river bed - got lost
and couldn't get out - when I climbed to the top where there
was a fence I realized that even if I could get over it, it
wouldn't put me back in the road. I wondered why I didn't
see the fence when I came down this road and walked off into
this place.
Finally I went back and found where I should have turned.
I went into a sort of mining place - met Johnson Bransford -
he said he would be back to see me in a little while - passed
thru a room which seemed to be where they were prizing
tobacco.
In the next room I laid a five dollar bill on the counter and
also a piece of paper. I walked away a little and noticed
that crowds of people were around the counter. I went back
to see about my five dollars and found it was still there.
I walked away again.
Met a man I seemed to know and he knew me - it seemed all
knew me - he said I should get in touch with Whiteford Cole,
that he needed me. I said I didn't write to people first,
but he said I should write to Cole. Went back to the counter
and found my five dollars after searching a little, but there
were piles and piles of bills on the counter of large
denomination. Each had a paper with it. One man said he
left his bill there because he couldn't get it changed - that
it was a thousand dollar bill. I picked it up and noticed
Johnson Bransford's name on it. The man said Johnson
Bransford was now registrar of the U.S. Treasury.
I walked back thru the room I came in thru and met
Mr. Tressler. He was in a terrible fix and wanted me to help
him out. It seemed it was Montgomery then. Crowds of people
were coming to have pictures made. Room was full of smoke
and steam and all torn up.
Someone came and told me Johnson Bransford was waiting to see
me.
As I went back thru the other room the same man told me not
to forget to write Cole.
(A) Here we have presented in this manner, as it were, the
emblematical conditions respecting the contemplated trip, and
trips, as experienced by the body, and the outcome of same.
There is seen that the way was once clear for this
understanding with Bransford as to the work being attempted.
Yet the changes have come as presented by the body being
lost, as it were, in the attempt to gain the road, or way
back seemed or appeared to be barred, even though the body
were able to get through or around the obstruction.
Then there is seen the reasoning, as it were, with self as to
what should - or as to what was the occasion that the body
was lost in this manner.
Then, as seen by returning in the same manner as the body was
LOST, the body gained the access to the place where the
individual was seen - Bransford. And there again the body
apparently becomes interested, yet deferring the time when
the body would converse or talk with the entity as respecting
those things sought. Yet, as seen, many were interested that
the body or entity did not know, even knew anything
concerning same, and the body seemed to spend or to lose, or
risk moneys for the purpose of waiting, delaying, or seeking
the interview.
And this as seen represents that the body, then, should wait
- or act very much in the manner as seen in interviewing and
gaining the audience again of the individuals who were, are
and need to be interested in that being attempted.
And, as seen, once interested, many others would be also,
even reaching into the realm where apparently many peoples
piled, as it were, moneys of high, intermediate and low
denominations, seeking to be associated with this same
undertaking.
Again the condition is presented in that association with
another individual whom the entity had contacted, and where
close relations, where even much depended, much was given,
much was expressed by the body. The entity needs again that
counsel, that association - and, as seen, large groups would
listen and be drawn to the entity for the aid.
Then as seen, here is presented for the entity two contacts
or connections and associations that should be considered,
and even time, money expended to contact these associates
again, that these may be associated even to the extent that
peoples in high places - even as of the treasurer of large
institutions - even in political and in high places - may
have the opportunity of knowing that being attempted. Act,
then, on that seen and given.
Ready for questions. [After pause]
We are through with this reading.
