5/26/26 EC's letter to [
4358]:
Dear Mrs. [
4358]:
I am certainly sorry to know that you were unable to get the
treatment as you had hoped to in the hospital in St. Louis.
I am in hopes, however, that the suggestions as have been
made, and as are made in the present reading, will prove
of help and assistance to you. I think I would, as near as
possible, adhere to the suggestions as are given here, so
that you will be able to get the relief much quicker, by
having some extra changes, as soon as you are able to.
I assure you, Mrs. [
4358] of our interest in your condition,
and of our desire to be of help if at all possible. I
believe that if you will adhere to the suggestions, and have
them carried out just as near as it is possible for you to
do, that you are going to find relief, even greater than you
have ever anticipated. I assure you we would like to hear
from you from time to time. I am sorry that there has been
such a delay in getting this reading, but I was called to see
my mother, and a week away from my engagements made them pile
up on me; but, we will try to attend to these just as fast
as it is possible, and I assure you it is our desire to be of
help. We are limited in the number of readings we can get in
one day; consequently, it takes us some little time, once in
a while, to catch up with the appointments. I am very much
in hopes that this finds you feeling a whole lot better and
that you will have a good report to make real soon.
Hoping to be of service, I am
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:GD

Mr. Edgar Cayce
Dear Sir:
Am writing to you in regards to my reading. I am having
some trouble in getting my medicine. There 3 kinds of the
Hydrastis, one put up on alcohol, in sealed 2 ounce bottles
$2.50 per bottle, one in water put up in 2 oz. bottle
a little cheaper, and another that is called colorless
hydrastis 3 oz. for $1.00 sold by the oz. One druggist
will tell me I need one kind and another will say different.
So am writing to you to settle it. The Life Everlasting I
got was in the weed itself. How should this be prepared or
should I get the liquid. I am feeling better than when I
wrote before you made my reading. I am enclosing a request
from my brother [
3725] to have you make a reading for him.
How soon can you make it. He will be here a couple of weeks
and would appreciate having you make it in that time. He
has been contemplating this for some time. Will give his
name on separate paper. Please let me hear from you soon. I
want to get my medicine as soon as possible. Respectively,
[

6/25/26 EC's letter to [
4358]:
Dear Mrs. [
4358]:
Replying to yours of the 21st, the Hydrastis that is needed
in your case is the colorless or tincture of Hydrastis. The
Everlasting - you can make this into the solution yourself
- one ounce to sixteen ounces of rain water, and reduce by
simmering (not boiling) to eight ounces. This will give you
the proper proportions.
I'm certainly glad that you are feeling better, and I'm
certainly very much in hopes that you will continue to
improve. I shall be very glad to try to be of some help to
your brother [See 3725-1], but on account of the number of
requests on hand, it will be impossible for us to get this
within the two weeks time. I'm enclosing the appointment
card for the date this can be made, and if he still desires
that we do this, he can give whatever address he will be at
that time. We certainly hope that we may be of some service.
Thank you for letting us hear from you - certainly hope that
you continue to improve.
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:GD
8/13/26 Letter re her brother [
3725]'s appointment: "I
am feeling pretty good. I am stronger and a good portion of
the time I have natural action of my bowels which was a rare
thing. But I have something wrong with my legs between knees
and ankles on inside between legs just itches to the bone,
can't rub it enough and feels like the blood beats like a
pulse in calf of leg and on inside. It is awful annoying, so
bad I can hardly stand it sometimes. Aside from that I feel
fine."
8/18/26 EC's letter to [
4358]:
My dear Mrs. [
4358]:
Replying to yours of the 13th, it was impossible for us to
make the reading for Mr. [
3725] and not have his correct
address. I'm sorry that we were unable to get this at this
time, for it necessitates our making the appointment many
weeks later. Possibly he will know though just where he
will be and he can change the date on the card and return at
that time. Be sure and let us know though as soon as it is
possible, for we are constantly having requests for readings
and we'd like to be of service to as many people as possible.
The date now will be Monday afternoon, the 27th day of
September, same hours, two to four Central time. Be
sure and let us know about this.
Now, as regarding yourself, I am certainly glad to know that
you are feeling stronger and pretty good. I am sure if you
will keep up the suggestions as were given you will overcome
this condition, for I'm sure you realize that this annoyance
is the blood forcing through these portions of your body in
a way that it hasn't done for a long, long, time, and this
condition should gradually disappear. It won't be a great
while before you should have another reading, and see if
there are any changes to be made in the treatment, and
just how you are progressing.
With kindest personal regards,
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:GD

Mr. Cayce
Dear Sir,
In regard to my brother's reading that is set for Sept. 27th,
he will have the reading made - he was so disappointed in not
getting it Aug. 16, but delay in my mail was the cause of not
getting his address for that day. I will change the card and
mail it later to be sure of his correct address.
Now a word for my self. I feel I am going in different ways.
I have been visiting twice this month, made a 15 mile trip
and back last Sunday. I hadn't been on the road for 5 years.
I sure enjoyed it very much - had no nervousness or soreness
from the trip just a little burning from Sun and wind but not
like I expected. I would rather keep up these last readings
a little longer before making another. I think I am getting
good results. Hope you will be successful in getting the
reading this time.
The date was Sept. 27 between the hrs. 2 to 4 Central time.
Wishing you much success in your work, I remain

4358], ..., Mo.
9/18/26 Letter re brother [
3725]'s appointment: "I am
still feeling pretty good myself."
11/23/26 [
4358]'s letter to EC:
Dear sir
I will write you again - should have done it sooner - am
feeling pretty well considering the cold weather. I have
the worst trouble with my hands - they want to draw shut
- is there anything I can rub on them to take the soreness
and stiffness out of them. If you think we had better have
another reading I am ready. My jaws have limbered up some
but I am a little afraid to have the bad teeth taken out
now - afraid of taking cold. May not hurt me any. Am still
taking medicine and using all you told me to except Balsam of
Sulphur but was thinking of beginning it again, but thought I
would write first.
I am sending a small donation at this time for the hospital
fund - hope to be able to do more later. I received the copy
of my brother's reading [3725-1]. He received the original
also. Says you told him better how he felt than he could
tell himself. He went to a Dr. - the best he could find in
Kansas City and she told him exactly as you told him. He
was well pleased with the reading and thanks you many times.
When he last wrote me said he was feeling lots better than he
had for a long time. He is carrying out as you said only he
could not get the saffron bark but the petals.
He received the booklet and card in regards to the hospital
fund and I am forwarding it on to him.
Must close for this time,
I am respectively, Mrs. [
4358], 5 miles North ..., Missouri
P.S. I am well enough to be at work all time - at some fancy
work or cutting quilt pieces which I am doing now. Wish you
every success in your new hospital.
Thanking you for what you have done to relieve me of so much
suffering, I wish for you a long life.
12/18/26 See
4358-4.
