5/15/39 Dr. Taylor's letter to HLC:
Dr. William D. Taylor

East Orange, New Jersey
Hugh Lynn Cayce
Asso. for Research & Enlightenment
Virginia Beach, Va.
Dear Hugh,
This morning I received a letter from [
1749] who told me to
expect one from you, and sure enough, it came on the
following mail. She enclosed her readings to me, and I
find it extremely interesting from the standpoint of being
an unusual case that will take a great deal of
understanding. You can count on me to get a complete case
history, because I feel that in a case like this it would be
valuable from a research standpoint and from a diagnostic
standpoint as well.
I have asked Miss [
1749] if it is convenient for her to do
so, to accompany our party to Virginia Beach for the
conference, and at that time it may be possible to get a
few words in on her case as we expect to arrive in Va. Beach
a day early.
I notice from the reading that it speaks of the lumbar
massage and the coordinating of the various centers. I
presume this should be done Neuropathically with Nerve
Tracing from the source in the spine, out. I have several
mediums of applying static electricity or mild heat, however,
I have a machine available in my office being uni-polar,
which transmits a very mild vibration of heat into the body
through the medium of a high frequency at low amperage. This
may be the machine to use, however, I will talk it over with
either you or your father before we begin treatments.
It looks very much as if positive suggestions must be given
in this case along with treatment, and I noticed when I met
her in New York that her posture was poor. This too may be
corrected by the treatment suggested in the reading.
Apparently Dr. Miller used another medium for treatment of
this case which had detrimental effect as Miss [
1749]
mentioned that the doctor who had been giving her White Light
treatments had not been completely successful and that was
her reason for discontinuing the treatments.
I can assure you that I will make the rate for her treatments
fit her means, as you and I well know the most important
thing in healing is to cure the patient if possible
regardless of the fee.
I am looking forward to seeing both you and your father the
week of June 12th at Virginia Beach, and if there is anything
that you have to suggest further, I will appreciate hearing
from you.
Sincerely yours,
[signed]
W. D. Taylor, N.D.

1749]'s letter to EC:
N.Y. City
Dear Mr. Cayce:
Thank you for writing. Have also received a copy of Mr.
Hugh Lynn's letter to Dr. Taylor.
I think Dr. Taylor is a fine person and am sure his
treatments will be successful. He does not have a copy,
nor have I, of the INSTRUCTION SHEET ACCOMPANYING MY FIRST
READING for the doctor. I gave my copy to Dr. Miller.
Would you mind sending a copy of this to Dr. Taylor as soon
as you can get around to it? I am sorry to have to ask you
to bother with this but do not like to ask Dr. Miller for it.
My Reading was #
1749-1 Nov. 16, 1938.
He is anxious to follow your directions thoroughly and tells
me he is going to write you.
I know you must be busier than usual now with the Congress
just ahead. Wish I might get down to it.
My best wishes to you always and gratitude.

East Orange, N.J.
Dear Dr. Taylor:
Thank you very much for your cooperation on the [
1749] case.
I was sure that we could count on you.
I am glad to note that you plan to attend the Congress and
that there will be several friends with you.
If I can be of assistance in making reservations for you I
will be glad to take care of them. As you will note from
previous announcements we are holding the Congress at the
Warner Hotel (folder enclosed). They have made us a special
rate of five per day per person with two in a room, bath and
three meals. As quite a number of those attending the
Congress will stay there and as both afternoon, evening and
the dinner meeting will be held there it will be convenient.
It is one of the best hotels at the Beach. The people owning
it have had readings and are interested in the work.
In the event that some of your party may desire more moderate
accommodations I am enclosing a cottage rate list. If you
will advise me of the amount they desire to pay I will make a
selection of reservations and secure the best accommodations
at that figure.
Dad is counting on the fishing trip. He enjoys it very much.
Sincerely, [HLC]

Dear Mr. Cayce,
It was with many regrets that I left Virginia Beach. We had
a very profitable and enjoyable time at the Convention, and
I will remember your hospitality for many a day.
One of my patients [[
1951]?] wishes to have a reading, and I
would appreciate it very much if you would send me an
application so that we might go ahead with this.
The case of Miss [
1749] is a very interesting one, and at
my earliest possible convenience I will send you a complete
case history, beginning with a near nervous breakdown in
1916, and running on through, checking in a very interesting
manner the opening up of the centers indicated in the reading
she obtained from you.
I believe she needs special attention and it might be well
for her to have a check reading. At the moment, however,
she doesn't seem to feel she can afford to do this, but will
have it as soon as she is able.
There is a history of physical and spiritual incoordination
which has ended in some definite upsets which apparently
could not be avoided.
I am hoping for the best and will await any advice that you
may be able to give before starting treatment in this case.
Very truly yours,
[signed]
W. D. Taylor, N.D.

6/22/39 EC's letter to Dr. Taylor:
Dear Dr. Taylor;-
Thanks for yours of the 22nd - am happy to know you feel the
meeting was worthwhile - certainly wish you might have heard
O'Neil [John J. O'Neill] Sat. night, would love to have had
your reaction to him. Was a real pleasure Dr. to know you
here in this material world we get closer together when we
have the personal acquaintance and it was a real pleasure to
be with you - and Gosh don't I wish I could be where you
could give me a going over once and while, think would have
job for you every day. May God Bless you and keep you and
may you do a great work for Others.
Thanks for the suggestion - am enclosing the blank - hope we
can help. Now about Miss [
1749], will appreciate the report,
am very anxious to try and help, and if you feel that a check
reading would be of help we will arrange for it, whether she
is able to pay or not, for it is to get the help we wish to
lend ourselves to. Of course we are much in the same
position as yourself, there are many that we must help
irrespective of pay - and of course it isn't just for pay
ever.
Thanking you and asking to be remembered to all that were
here certainly enjoyed every one of them.
In the messages on Sunday afternoon very few of those that
were away got any thing the reading [
262-121] was too long
guess - any way understand it stopped before it got yours.
Sorry but is something can't help.
Thanking you and hoping we may be of real help with
Miss [
1749] -
Sincerely

6/26/39 [
1749]'s letter to EC:
N.J.
Dear Mr. Cayce:
At last I have reached New Jersey for the summer vacation
period and began last week my first of a series of treatments
with Dr. W. D. Taylor of East Orange.
I like him so much in every way and feel that this time the
treatment is going along satisfactorily in everyway.
He tells me that he went fishing with you while at the
Conference. I am eager to hear news of the Conference,
and hope that next year I can get down there.
There is one question I would like to ask you. Do you mean
for me to take the "White Light" treatment? When I saw Dr.
Taylor last week he thought from certain indications that I
was to have the simple low static electric treatment. Then
when I told him of the time when I met you in the McAlpine
and of your remark to me - "I want you to have the White
Light" - why, he thought differently. He wants to follow
your directions in the reading exactly and he has a copy of
the directions.
The machine which Dr. Miller used was, I believe, the
"White Light".
Will you mind dropping me a line about this as soon as you
can conveniently do so?
You see the reading does not state what type of machine
is to be used.
Last week Dr. Taylor used simply an electric vibrator of
some sort.
I hope you are well and not too tired from the Conference
activities.
My best wishes to you and my regards to Hugh Lynn Cayce
and gratitude to him for his interest and help in writing
to Dr. Taylor for me.
Sincerely yours [
1749]
P.S. Dr. Taylor has been most considerate in his charges,
for which I am grateful.
6/28/39 EC's letter to Miss [
1749]:
Dear Miss [
1749]:
Thank you for yours of the 26th - am glad you are where you
can have the advantage of Dr. Taylor treatments, while I had
every confidence in Dr. Taylor - until recently it was just
a feel - just an assurance from contact - and reports from
others but as you possibly know he was here for our meeting
- and had the privilege of being with him a bit and of having
personally several of his treatments, so now feel that I know
personally, and I am of the opinion he is just what you need
at this time. Now Miss [
1749] wrather than answering some of
your questions here - just from the way I feel, will suggest
that we have a reading and you put in your questions and let
the Dr. put in his. Now this is on me, just because I wish
to see you have the advantage now of the very best possible -
for feel it is the time - while we are busy - am putting this
in the first opportunity - and will ask that you send your
questions - and have the Dr. to do so also that we may have
them before the time - and be sure and give me the address
you will be for the hour set please.
The Time is Thursday afternoon the 6th - 3.30 to 4.30 E.S.T.
Now will you do this for me.
Had a line from Miss [
283], guess you two will get together
as she I believe is to be in that part of the country - Upper
Montclair believe it is.
Thanking you and hoping to hear from you - and assuring you
of my desire to help.
Sincerely
Edgar Cayce

Dear Mr. Cayce,
Thank you for your very lovely letter and for the kind offer
you made concerning a check reading for Miss [
1749]. I
believe a check reading would be very helpful in her case,
and if you can arrange for it, Miss [
1749] and I will very
much appreciate it. If you do not have Miss [
1749]'s address
at ... you can let me know when the reading will take place
and I in turn can speak to her.
The application blank which you meant to enclose in your
letter to me was among the missing. I guess when you sealed
the letter you just forgot to put it in as I do in my letters
so many times. May I use the application blank which is on
the back of the Associations brochure concerning your work?
If this will be satisfactory I will send it in as soon as I
hear from you.
We are making plans for a real bang-up fishing trip here for
you when the fish really begin to run. I inquired yesterday
in Manasquan which in a shore resort in New Jersey about a
good boat to trowl from. There are several and we can have
our pick. I certainly am looking forward to it, and I hope
nothing happens to interfere in our having a most pleasant
time together.
My regards to Hugh and Mrs. Cayce.
Sincerely,
[signed]
W. D. Taylor
P.S. I wish that it was possible for me to adjust you
oftener as you suggested might be helpful. It certainly
would be a privilege.
6/30/39 EC's letter to Dr. Taylor:
Dear Dr. Taylor;
Thank you for yours of the 29th - sorry that I failed to
enclose the blank - will try and do so in this, also give
you a period for the reading. Saturday afternoon the 8th -
3.30 to 4.30 E.S.T. so when have your letter the time will
be set also - and wrote Miss [
1749] to give her address - her
questions also to have questions from you - the time is the
afternoon of the 6th 3.30 to 4.30 E.S.T.
Sure any time you wish to use a blank from one of the Assn.
Booklets do so - that is what they are for.
Do hope can make that fishing trip - quite a number are
making appointments for the middle of July - these two
especially can't afford to miss - as they are coming quite
some distance to see me, but hope it will not interfere.
Thanking you, and with sincere good wishes
Sincerely
Edgar Cayce
7/01/39 Miss [
1749]'s letter to EC:
..., New Jersey
Dear Mr. Cayce:
I cannot thank you enough for giving me a reading at this
time. I shall be at ..., New Jersey and will keep the
time on Thursday July 6th, which you have given me.
My contact with Dr. Taylor, and everything connected with the
case at the present time seems to be going along beautifully.
I am so filled with gratitude to you and to Mrs. [
1602] (and
to Dr. Taylor also, who is such an understanding and
spiritual person in the real sense of the meaning) and
to Hugh Lynn.
Yes, I am looking forward to seeing [
283] soon. She was the
one who told me of you.
I will not write more now. The questions [see below] are
attached.
Thank you again. It will be just wonderful to have another
reading now as I feel it is the RIGHT time.
Faithfully yours, [
1749]
Questions for [
1749]:
1) Will the WHITE LIGHT be effective as a treatment in
my case?
2) Will you give the conditions you find at the present
time in the body and suggestions for treatment?
3) Will the ear need any special form of treatment?
4) Will the hemorrhoidal condition need any special form
of treatment?
5) In what areas are the centers now opened and will you
suggest treatment that will help to raise or transmute the
energy?
6) Would you advise any daily meditation or any form of
special breathing or visualization exercise at the present
time?
7) If the treatment is followed exactly as you suggest will
it be needed for a long or short period of time?
8) As I have the opportunity of being in the country now
on a vacation period, will you suggest any way in which I
may help to improve the bodily conditions?
9) Will you explain just what I did which opened the centers
and so caused the inharmony in the body?
If I know this, then I can help others to keep from doing it.
7/06/39 See
1749-3.
