KENTUCKY LUMBER COMPANY
INCORPORATED
ROUGH AND DRESSED HARDWOOD LUMBER
606-608 SECURITY TRUST BUILDING
LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY
Mr. David Kahn,
New York, N.Y.
Dear Mr. Kahn:-
Your brother was in my office this morning, requesting that
I give you an affidavit as to the work done by Mr. Edgar
Cayce in connection with the illness of Mrs. DeLaney.
Will simply make statement in this letter and place notary
acknowledgement at the bottom.
Mrs. DeLaney has been a sufferer for a number of years; and
several years ago I heard of the ability of Dr. Cayce, and
requested that he come to Lexington, which he did. He was
the first to correctly diagnose Mrs. DeLaney's trouble;
altho' she had been to a number of physicians throughout the
country. He advised several treatments, which were of
considerable benefit to her; however, did not result in a
cure.
As a result of my acquaintance with Dr. Cayce in connection
with this work; I have no hesitancy in saying, that he has
wonderful hidden power; in addition, I am sure he is a
gentleman, whose judgement can be relied upon.
Yours truly, [signed] W. E. DeLaney
WED.AM
State of Kentucky
SCT
County of Fayette
On this the 22nd day of January 1921 personally appeared
before me, W. E. DeLaney, who signed the above; and in my
presence made oath to the truth of the statement therein
contained.

[Perhaps in 1917 [Dec. 1908?] rdgs. were given - no copy in
file. DEK may be able to fill in details, since this was the
case that introduced DEK to EC's work. GD]
GD's note: From hearing DEK mention this case, I believe
she was a wheel chair patient, partially paralyzed, couldn't
do her own hair at first but was later able to, after
following the readings.
1/10/27 DEK wrote that Mrs. [
3750] was in a similar
condition, not as bad.
