5/23/36 Letter from EC: "Thanks for yours of 21st also the
enclosure, while we do not expect those of the profession to
contribute when they cooperate with us in their reports we
thank you just the same, and it will help some other poor
soul where they are not able to contribute at all. I note
with a great deal of interest your report on the findings of
the tests made for you, and will be very interesting to you I
think if you follow the suggestions to watch results. While
I am not trying to justify the information Dr., at all, for
the more often there are a great deal more harmony in the
tests than apparently shown in your report. But the
information is given from within, and not from the symptoms,
am sure that must always be the case, thus the inclination,
that so often are the real cause, is described, check over
the cases you have seen, and see if that is not correct.
"As to the attitude, Dr., isn't it honestly a reflection of
yourself, for unless the information is as a mirror, it isn't
much, and doesn't know such a thing as a personality, only
reflects what approaches it, and in the manner of approach.
"I appreciate your interest Dr., and hope you will make an
honest, sincere study of the information, am sure it is just
as a very prominent Physician said some years ago, 'If you
want to say there is nothing in the information, you can take
the words of a reading and prove it, but if you are really
looking for soul inspiration and truth, if you will approach
it in that vein it will give it back to you and bring help
and relief when everything else has failed at times.'
"Sorry to hear of Mrs. [
742]'s death, but at her age am sure
her work here was finished.
"Thanks Dr. let us hear from you again, and know I am glad to
try and serve at any time."
2/28/38 "Please see that this is forwarded to the proper
person. I would like to have half dozen of 'TIM' (for
hemorrhoids) sent to me c.o.d. as soon as possible. I
naturally would like the same professional discount offered
to Physicians generally." [EC forwarded the order to Health
Home Remedies Corp.]
5/24/48 Ltr. to HLC: "Our friend, and my patient, put one of
your abstracts (#4) in my hands. It was Mr. Johan Franco.
As a result, I'd like to know what other abstracts you have,
with the idea of purchasing some of them. Also please send
me at your earliest convenience the book, 'THERE IS A RIVER,'
a bottle of Atomidine, one of Ipsab, and a small jar of Tim.
Would like these as soon as possible. You may bill me or
send c.o.d. as you choose.
"During the past 2 yrs. I have contracted an osteoarthritis
of the 6th and 7th dorsal of my spine. I wish your father
were now living, but if you have any suggestions other than
those in pamphlet #4, I'll be glad to receive them.
Osteopathy alone is not helping it. I'm not crippled or in
great pain, but it is annoying especially in the early
morning hours, starting about 4 to 6 a.m."
5/28/48 HLC's reply to Dr. [
657]: "It was certainly good to
have your letter of May 24th and get in touch with you again.
"Under separate cover, we are mailing you some of the data
regarding our work which will bring you up-to-date. We have
abstracts on epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, deafness, and
arthritis. One is now being prepared on cancer material.
"I hope it will be possible for us to have you as a regular
member of our Association, and also a member of the Advisory
Board of Physicians. We would like to keep in close touch
with you and cooperate as far as possible in our abstract
studies of the information which was accumulated through the
years in the Edgar Cayce files.
"We are having our annual Congress here, June 20th thru 26th.
It would be fine if you could attend some of these mtgs. as
it would be an opportunity for meeting a number of doctors
here who are interested in the abstracting and indexing work.
I am sure that your suggestions and comments would be of help
in planning our program in this direction.
"As requested, we are mailing you a copy of THERE IS A RIVER
and a bottle of Atomidine. A bottle of Ipsab and a jar of
Tim will be mailed to you from Marsden Godfrey in Norfolk,
Va.
"I am delighted that Mr. Franco is in touch with you and I
hope you have been of help in clearing up his little
difficulties.
"Best regards from all here. I look forward to seeing you
personally when I am in New York early next fall."
6/09/48 Letter from Dr. [
657] to HLC: "Your nice ltr. of May
28th was received. In response I have decided to become an
active member of your Assoc. I will send you my ck. the
first of the month. In the meantime, perhaps you can give me
some help. I have had an osteoarthritis of the dorsal spine
for nearly two yrs. While I'm not crippled or in agony, it
is very uncomfortable at times, I've tried Osteopathy, and
other forms of treatment, but the condition still exists, to
a lesser degree than at first. I have concluded these
treatments are not sufficient within themselves to clear up
the trouble. I have your Arthritis Abstract #4, and am
following the advice in Group #1. I started this several
days ago. Can you offer anything from your Father's Readings
which might be of additional help in my particular case? I
will much appreciate your kindness and trouble in the matter.
[
6/15/48 We sent him a copy of Case [
3592]. GD.]
"I have received the various items sent for, and have mailed
my check for same. Will you please send Mr. Godfrey's exact
address, so I might send to him for additional orders, saving
you the trouble?
"I will look forward personally to seeing you when you are in
New York next Fall. Sorry your Congress is not after July
4th, when I would be able and have more free time to make the
trip. Mr. and Mrs. Franco moved to Virginia Beach Tuesday.
They are delightful people to know.
"I hope I'm not asking too much in the above. Charge me
for any extra trouble involved. With kindest personal
regards..."
8/17/48 Dr. [
657]'s letter to Mr. Johan Franco:
"Thank you so much for keeping me in mind. Am glad you are
now feeling definitely better. Sciatica is a very tenacious
ailment. I know, because I had it myself.
"My spinal arthritis is about gone. I only took Atomidine a
short while, and at the same time was taking some Reilly's
Health (physical medicine) treatments. As to whether one or
both did the trick I do not know. But I do believe the
Atomidine has real virtue.
"Mr. [...] felt considerably better when he left here, but
I have not seen him recently.
"I have great faith in the Radioclast, both for diagnosis
and treatment. So much so, that I am running a clinic next
month, at much reduced fees, to stimulate interest in this
form of electronics. Would you kindly send me a list of
names in and around NYC who might be interested? I will much
appreciate it."
12/05/48 Dr. [
657]'s letter to HLC:
"Mr. Romano [Jacques Romano?], somewhat of a food specialist
in this city, has stated in his lectures and to me personally
that milk tends to increase the normal amount of mucus,
aggravating catarrhal conditions, and is harmful for anyone
except babies. How does this fit in with your father's
readings?
"I sent an order to Mr. Godfrey
2-3 weeks ago for a large
container of Tim. As yet I have neither rec'd it nor heard
from him. Will you be so kind as to see that I get it?
"Thirdly, have you any data on faulty calcium metabolism?
I have calcium deposit in my lower spine, which is playing
havoc with my sciatic nerve (pressure). Can you help me
with any information in this respect - that is, how to avoid
further recurrence of it? I have found a way to get it out,
I believe."
12/30/48 HLC's reply: "I checked with Marsden Godfrey
regarding your order for TIM. I hope that by this time
you have received it.
"The Edgar Cayce records seem to indicate that any excess
deposit irritation such as calcium or excess mucus or
catarrhal conditions, result from an improper functioning
of a normal body. There is no indication that one product,
such as milk, alone, would cause for all bodies an excess
amount of mucus.
"I know that you have by this time examined our extract
on Arthritis. You will note that this deals with calcium
deposits and I feel sure that the suggestion for the use of
moderate quantities of atomidine would perhaps be the answer
to your problem on the calcium deposit. According to the
rdgs. deposits of calcium are brought on by improper
glandular functioning and can be relieved in this manner.
"During the next few weeks I will be in New York several
days each week, generally speaking, I will be back in
Virginia Beach for weekends. You can reach me at the Seymour
Hotel, 45th St., between 5th and 6th. At your convenience,
give me a telephone call and we will arrange an appt. I
would enjoy seeing and talking with you again.
"I hope that you had a very pleasant Christmas and may the
New Year bring you continued success and prosperity."
1/15/49 HLC's letter to Dr. [
657]: "Enclosed you will find
an extract from reading [
636] in reference to the formula of
the elixir which you ordered. Under separate cover a bottle
of elixir is being mailed C.O.D. to you."
10/17/49 He requested abstract of 19 cases of Neurasthenia
from the Edgar Cayce records, and asked to be notified of
future abstracts. "Am still interested. Think it is a
wonderful thing."
2/04/50 "I use a great deal of the Atomidine... In a few more
years I may come down and give you a lift occasionally, but
now I must ask your kind indulgence."
12/27/50 Report extracted by GD from Sherwood Eddy's new
book, YOU WILL SURVIVE AFTER DEATH, page 95: "The second
doctor told of Cayce's remarkable diagnoses which he had
observed for several years and testified that he himself had
been cured by Cayce."
7/52, 10/53 He ordered A.R.E. publications.
4/58 We heard that he had retired to New Jersey.
