1/22/21 [
4954]'s affidavit:
THE STATE OF TEXAS COUNTY OF JOHNSON
This is to certify that I have personally known Mr. Edgar
Cayce for some few years, and desire to testify as to what
I consider his marvelous powers.
I am, at the present time, one of the local surgeons for the
Gulf Colorado & Santa Fe Railroad Company and have been a
practicing physician and surgeon in the city of Cleburne,
Texas, for the past twenty five years. [Also trustee of
Sam Davis Oil Co. - see [
3777] series.]
My wife [
4954]'s physical condition for the last few
years not being of a satisfactory nature to me, and having
knowledge of Mr. Cayce's powers, I decided to get him to
give me a reading on her condition. He did so, giving me an
absolutely correct diagnosis of her condition and prescribed
a most logical treatment for her which is effecting an
absolute cure of the patient's ailment.
I will further say that the said Edgar Cayce, prior to the
reading, had no knowledge of my wife's condition, had never
seen or met her, nor has he, to this day, personally come in
contact with her.
Witness my hands this the 22nd day of January, 1921.
[signed] D. Strickland, M.D.
Sworn and subscribed to before me this the 22nd day of
January 1921. [signed and sealed] M. P. Allard Notary
Public, Johnson County, Texas.
GD's note: 4/29 Dr. Strickland's death notice appeared
listing his wife as a survivor.
