GC: You will have before you the treasure buried near what
is now Kelly's Ford, Culpepper County, Virginia, and the
work done yesterday, April 15, 1931, by A. C. Preston, O. H.
Snyder and son, Hugh Lynn Cayce and Gray Salter, attempting
to locate this treasure. Please give them advice in a way
and manner that will be understandable, considering the
property as it now lies, as to how to proceed to locate this
treasure. You will answer the questions which they will ask.
EC: Yes, we have the operations that have been made
in search for treasure at Kelly's Ford - see Preston,
Snyder, Hugh Lynn Cayce, Gray Salter.
As we find, in the second location as was made - this has
been excavated to the west and the south from where the
treasure, or greater portion, will be found - where there are
indications of burned wood, ashes, and the like. Will there
be the checking of this location with the vibrating machine,
it will outline for them the location where this may be found
- see? Ready for questions.
(Q) How deep is treasure from top of the ground in its
present condition?
(A) From three to three and a half feet.
(Q) How many feet from present -
(A) Locate same with machine, rather than trying to measure
from here - because it's scattered about - where the ashes
were.
(Q) Have we been using the instrument correctly? If not,
how should it be used?
(A) Make same for the depths that do not extend so deep
- see? In other respects, very good - but atmospheric
conditions have interfered, though the atmosphere, time and
period show for indications from emanations - as has been
seen. This, while not in the exact spot, is where they
should use instrument for locating - see?
(Q) What is indicted by the instrument in the second
location on top of the small mound not yet dug into?
(A) This where there will be found portions of that which
will be very interesting.
(Q) Was the gray light we saw near the first hole dug an
indication of the location of treasure?
(A) Indicator of those emanations, as has been described,
from treasure buried.
(Q) Any other advice to these?
(A) Follow these as we have given - see. We are through for
the present.
