This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his office, 115 West 35th Street, Virginia Beach, Va., this 21st day of April, 1928, in accordance with request made by [195].

Present: Edgar Cayce; [900], Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mrs. [136], Mrs. Cayce, and Mr. L. B. Cayce.

TEXT

1. [900]: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [195], who is working in cooperation with [4666] in ..., Ohio, on the [4666] Motor. You will have before you the patent attorneys in Washington, D.C. who may be fitted to handle this patent [See 4665-4, Par. B2]. The first question you will answer regarding this is as follows: Is it expedient to build two motors at this time? One size as already given by the forces from here, and another size to be a smaller size and used as a working motor at the patent office as per rules for this class of machine. If the small size should be built to gain a patent, and to use to demonstrate to the patent attorneys to the committee in Washington, what size motor should be used and how small amount of power should be generated? Would two inch eccentric throw and leads eight inches wide generate power enough to turn the motor on? What are approximate dimensions of small size motor that would work?
2. EC: Yes, we have the body and the enquiring mind of [195] and the association with [4666] respecting the building of the [4666] Motor.
3. It becomes necessary, as given, for a model to be presented for application of patent on such machinery. The size does not make a great deal of difference, so the same ratio or proportions are kept for that outlined. The variation in the specific gravity of chemical and other ingredients through which the leads gain their control from combustion as produced through activity of that change taking place in the matter - these will operate under this same ratio, so the size as has been outlined or considered with the leads, with the eccentric, if the size as given will operate. These will generate sufficient power to thoroughly demonstrate the plausibility and practicability of the motor, built in that way and manner.
4. In the presenting of same for patent, there has been given the best one to consider same and to secure same. These - through connections and changes - have not been as seriously considered as they should have been. Those with and through whom [195] has operated would prove just as liable to forego the proper action, and more so than the others.
5. (Q) Stick to Ball then? [Henry Rice BEll? See 4665-3, Par. 3-A.]
   (A) Stick to Ball, if the proper consideration would be gained for the proper development, the proper consideration, of this motor.
6. (Q) A two inch eccentric and eight inch leads will prove proper dimensions for the smaller model?
   (A) This as given.
7. (Q) Any further suggestions that might aid [195] and [4666] in specifically manufacturing and demonstrating this machine?
   (A) Build the model on the same lines as has been outlined for the larger motor, and - as given - only necessary that sufficient experimentation be made to give the proper reaction for the work of the motor. Be careful of the cams and the leads. These are the centers from which generation and activity toward the eccentrics operate.
   Do that.
8. We are through with this reading.

BACKGROUND

1. 3/28/28 See 4665-3.
2. 4/16/28 Mr. [195] submitted questions: "Would Church and Church, National Press Building, or Munro and Lewis, 1435 G. Street, Washington, D.C., be better fitted to secure basic patent, and at same time more trustworthy?"

REPORTS

1. 4/21/28 Mr. [195]'s letter to EC:
   "...As you know, [4666] is very psychic and at the same time he is very desirous of doing something for the institute. At this time we need a lot of help to further the activity and hasten the realization of our dreams. When [4666] was a youngster he was living in ..., Ala. a small town near Birmingham. One evening he had a vision of 2 pots of gold buried about 4 feet below the surface of ground in his back yard. The exact dimensions were given him and he started to dig but his father on returning from work made him stop. He has had this vision many times before him but again, here in ..., the other night he had the same dream. I told him that as soon as patent situation on motor was thrashed out I would go down there with him and dig up the treasure should you give a favorable report and we could buy the lot on which he used to live. There is no big hurry on the reading on account of our present work but I would suggest that as soon as you have an open date you make the reading. [4666] wants to give and give greatly, and should there be funds available down there, our present worries will be overcome and another good lesson gained..."
2. 5/04/28 See 4666-2, a dream interpretation reading in which Mr. [4666] was attempting to locate buried treasure on some property in Alabama. EC warned him to not seek for the treasure but to apply himself to that in hand - apparently referring to his Motor invention.
3. 5/22/28 See 4665-5.
