   [GD's note: This rdg., 304-49, was given all by itself. If there had been another Ck. Physical to follow, the usual ending for 304-49 would have been, "We are through with this reading." Could the statement "for the present" have meant that EC was to help Mr. [304] on the other side, after he passed on?]
