TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2504]. This we have had before. Now, we find, while changes have taken place, and many of these for the betterment, there is not wholly the improvement at THIS time as there SHOULD have been, in the physical changes. These are shown especially in the manner in which the system fails to eliminate those drosses and the excess of those conditions as have been cast into the system by the vibratory forces set up. Then, that lacking has been the necessary stimuli through the manipulations as give to the various centers that govern eliminating forces of the system, as to keep these conditions gradually on the improve. In other words, the body had reached where it was rather at the standstill than on the improve as should be. Keep, then, more consistently those suggestions for the full corrections. Ready for questions.
2. (Q) Can anything more be done to relieve the sluggishness of the liver?
   (A) We would occasionally use those of packs of oil - castor oil - over the WHOLE of the liver, at NIGHT. Hot packs, see? Once in ten days should be sufficient, would the proper stimuli be given along the centers of the cerebro-spinal that govern the excretory and secretive functioning of the liver. Those of ASSIMILATING elements are very good, but to enliven the reaction of the blood forces through the organ proper, STIMULATE same by such packs.
3. (Q) Is satisfactory progress being made in restoring the use of hands and arms?
   (A) Save as has been outlined.
4. (Q) Any other suggestions for this body at this time?
   (A) Rather keep those as have been given, CONSISTENTLY given. Let the manipulations, as has been suggested, be kept with more activity but not so severe as to cause pain to the body - taking the time to relax the various centers as are necessary, and taking the time to give the BODY - mentally AND physically - time to RESPOND to those stimuli as created. We are through for the present.

4. 10/29/29 [2504]'s letter to EC:
   Mr. Edgar Cayce, 115 - 35th Street, Virginia Beach, Va.
   My dear Mr. Cayce:-
   I saw Mr. Lankford [Hon. Menalcus Lankford] the other day and phoned you just after you had left for Kentucky. I called Mr. Lankford back and told him the sad mission you were on. [Dr. House's funeral] I called him again on yesterday and he told me he was leaving at 4 o'clock for Washington and would be gone for a few days, but would be glad to take the matter up with us at any time upon his return.
   He stated that the matter [of station house for Cayce Hospital] would have to be taken up at Old Point first. I told him that I saw no reason why the summer house could not be erected on the property subject to removal upon notice and he thoroughly agreed with me. Certainly this would not start any precedent for the Government, as the Chamberlain-Vanderbilt Hotel and several other private buildings are on the Government reservation at Old Point and I think the Catholic Church at Cape Henry.
   I am leaving tomorrow for ... for ten days or two weeks. Dr. Berger was of the opinion that it would be beneficial to me; however, she did not wish me to leave before seeing you. I was down again today with the hope of seeing you. I saw Mr. Brown and Mr. Edward [Edwin] Blumenthal.
   I will be glad to have a line from you at ..., Va., R.F. No. 1. I feel much improved and hope to come back still better and resume my treatments in the wonderful Cayce Hospital.
   Very sincerely yours, [2504]
5. 10/22/29 EC's letter to [2504]:
   Mr. [2504] R.F.D. #1, Virginia
   Dear Mr. [2504]:-
   They told me when we returned that you had only been gone from the house just a few minutes. I was certainly very sorry to have missed you. I was sorry to have missed Mr. Lankford. It was circumstances, of course, over which we had no control. He has sent me several communications, and I think I have the thing in shape now, so if I could talk to him just a few minutes I believe I could get it alright - possibly be better for me to write him, so we will have it in black and white - think that's the way they require it. Certainly want to thank you for your interest in the matter, and I hope we will be able to get it all settled satisfactorily very soon.
   Hoping you are feeling the very best, and with kindest personal regards to yourself and wife from all, I am
   Sincerely, EC:GD
