Mr. A. H. Thomas,
P.O. Box 1693,
Miami, Florida
My dear Mr. Thomas:-
It has been illness on my part that has prevented me from
getting the information on the treasure as soon as I would
have liked to, but I am today mailing the reading as was
gotten to Mr. [
943], who I'm sure will give you the contents
of that gotten. If you think this is sufficient to work out
the proposition, why alright. If not, possibly we may be
able to take the question up from your own dream. I'm sure,
as Mr. [
943] has told you - or as you have possibly seen from
the data that is published by the Association - you are aware
of the fact that we give dream readings. Many of us who
have been studying the work are inclined to believe that
information obtained through these sources (that is, the
interpretation of dream) is most authentic and possibly
more thoroughly understandable to the individual.
I'm certainly sorry to know you all have not been successful
so far in locating this treasure. I could go into details
respecting such undertakings as have been attempted through
many years. Very few have been as successful as we would
like for them to be. I think I am honest when I say, I
believe it rather the misunderstanding of the information
than a fault of the information itself - though I realize I
may be fooling myself.
I appreciate your letter and would like to hear from you
again. I assure you it's my desire to be of help whenever
possible. I believe you have the right idea and the right
purpose. I don't want you to send good money after bad, but
I would certainly like for a thorough search to be made of
these grounds, and I assure you I'll be glad to try to help
if possible.
Again thanking you, I am
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce

Dear Mr. Cayce:
We made another search for the treasure with the usual
success - I cannot figure the proposition out now as we have
carried out all the instructions. A Cofferdam was built on
location made and excavation was made down to the hard rock
and water removed as much as it was possible to do and there
is nothing there except a deep crevice or two which are not
large enough for box or trunk. I don't know, Mr. Cayce, why
we are unable to get just the right interpretation on the
information given. I have sincerely tried and devoted a lot
of time in trying to follow out the instructions given, but
it seem an impossibility to do. I wonder if the forces
would give a reading on the treasure in locating it from the
cofferdam as now located, giving depth, distance and size of
container. I am still willing to try again as my faith and
belief are still good and I know that conditions will work
out in due time. So if you will give another reading I will
brave the sand fleas and mosquitos again and they are awful
at this time of year.
6/12/28 Referring to letter which you received from A. H.
Thomas sometime ago with reference to the treasure at broad
creek channel - I did not know that he had written you until
I received your letter and I was much surprised that he would
write you without saying something to me about it. It
is extremely hard to find men that you can have absolute
confidence in this day and age and I have arrived at the
conclusion that we will work it out someway without taking
anymore people in on the information that we have obtained.
Have given Thomas security in excess of all the money that he
put out while we were searching for treasure and I feel that
the right thing has been done.
6/20/28 Mr. [
943] wired for Ck. Rdg.

"Would like to have reading Broad Creek Channel as per last
letter when you have chance. Regards."
