TEXT

1. LBC: You have before you Mr. [4671] of ..., Ky. Go over him and examine him carefully and tell us what is the matter with him.
2. EC: He is about to die. Congestion through the action of the liver, on the organism of the intestinal tract, that produces over-stimulation from the hepatic circulation, producing the trouble that we have here at present.
3. These come from troubles that we have had back here, from the intestinal tract and through the nerve force and blood supply of the whole system.
4. The trouble that we have at present, what he is suffering with now, is from congestion of the circulation of the liver in itself, until we have a great sinking of the whole body, and the pulse is running away with itself. The heart is throwing its blood out to the rest of the whole system, but not enough to carry on, through the hepatic circulation here. It does not stimulate the nerve force along the spine, the solar plexus, and the Helia [ilia?] nerve force, at the dorsal there. If we do not stimulate those there, it will be too late to do anything. Stimulate these enough to increase the circulation there, that is, force it again through the liver and intestinal tract, then we will have some chance to do something with it. Will have to do it mighty quick, though.
5. He has become cold along the spine, over the fifth dorsal, and the first lumbar, the feet and arms. The circulation out there is being forced through the body wearing the cells out of the heart itself, throwing it out. We have no blood purifier, none taken up from the hepatics, but forced through the intestinals until we have this congested condition.
6. (Q) Anything else?
   (A) Not now, not much chance for him to go through it all.
7. (Q) What treatment would you prescribe?
   (A) Stimulate with heat, hot water, or electrical forces. You see then, we magnify these forces, or electrify the forces to the solar plexus, so that it warms the whole body; and also the intestinals here through the hepatic circulation, by electrifying, we force circulation. Heating the body keeps the blood in motion. When the body becomes cold, the blood dies. When the blood ceases to circulate in the body, the body becomes cold. The blood congeals in the veins, in the arteries, in the system; it chokes up through the intestinal tract, and through the liver. Becomes cold along the nerve force, interlapping with the blood supply of this force.
   Now, we want to increase the force here in the solar plexus, and the helia [iliac?] nerve center.
   Then, we can improve the body somewhat there, but it cannot last long, because he is going to die.
