Mr. Edgar Cayce,
Virginia Beach, Va.
Dear Mr. Cayce:
We spent all last week and part of the week before trying to
locate the treasure at Broad Creek channel and it seems
impossible to find it as we followed information given as
closely as it is possible for human being to do. We built
a coffer dam around about three fourth of the forty square
feet and with shovels and buckets bailed out the mud and
water [See Source File Key #1274 for hand drawn map re
1274-14, Par. R1] down to hard rock. Something seems to be
wrong and I would like for you to give another reading on it
to see just what is missing. I feel that we are entitled to
this one because we have done so much work on it and I still
feel that it is there. Parties that has [have?] been working
with me are very much disheartened and I can't blame them. I
thought that if you would give another reading that I would
go there myself without the aid of anyone else and see what
effect that would have if any. I would suggest that the
question be along the following lines:
"You have before you the buried treasure near Broad Creek
Channel, Monroe County, Florida, on which you have given
information that the treasure would be found near the center
of a forty square feet space using a location where a block
was found as the South East corner. Almost three fourths of
this space has been excavated down to hard rock and balance
of space thoroughly probed down to the rock and nothing
found. Will you give the reason why [
943] has been unable
to locate the treasure according to information given and if
information given is correct where the error was made. Is it
possible to give more detail information how to locate it and
what to do to follow out instructions as given."
I will make one more attempt at trying to locate it,
Mr. Cayce, if you will furnish me with another reading along
the lines as above and if you can suggest anything more that
would get us what we want add to the above suggestion. I
still believe in the information and would like to prove
this. Please give a reading this week if possible.
With kindest personal regard
Sincerely, [
943]

1274-15.
