TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we find some accentuations of those conditions as have disturbed and do disturb this body. More pain through the locomotories, and in the arms and head. This produced by the overtaxing of the system as related to those efforts and activities of the system in setting up the eliminations, and in the assimilated forces as are necessary for the improvement of the conditions - these accentuations, would there be applied that which will aid in bringing a nearer equalization and a stimuli to the heart's action - any uneasiness as YET be seen - but would these continue to where there is again the reaction sufficient to overtax the system to INCREASE the pressure in the upper cervicals and brain, then this may become much more acute.
2. We would, then, give the mixture or alternations of that in Digital and Strychnine, and we would equalize the emanations and the pressure as is produced, by either those of the manipulations - gently given - that the circulation may pick up the better, and the activities of the nerve energies be relieved - or through that of the VIBRATORY forces as may come from DRIVEN vibrations for the system. Do that. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Will the mental conditions clear up?
   (A) As the pressure is removed, the mental condition should clear up. This dependent to be sure, upon the manner in which the pressure is removed and the absorption taking place in the system so as to be eliminated from the system.
   Manipulation should be in the dorsal, lumbar, and ESPECIALLY in the head and neck. Arms and limbs massage, more than manipulation.
4. (Q) How often should the manipulation be given?
   (A) GENTLY once each day. Thoroughly, at least once each week.
5. (Q) How often should the Digital and Strychnine be given, and what doses?
   (A) Only when this [is] NECESSARY to relieve the pressures, or pain as comes, and then in very small doses. Under the supervision of physician, sure.
6. (Q) Is the body responding to the treatments as have been given?
   (A) Not wholly, as yet - for these have not kept pace with those outlines for the treatments, see? Keep these in their proper order, time, as given - not thinking because there is nothing felt that there will not be reaction from the conditions, for these will make pressures when OVERTAXING the system. We are through with this reading.

REPORTS

1. 11/02/29 Wife's letter in answer to Cayce Hospital form letter: "In answer to your letter I am sorry to say my husband is getting weaker every day, and the doctor did not want me to continue the pad, or the battery; he admits if we had used them right in the beginning of his sickness it might have done him some good. You see, Dr. Cayce, he has developed hardening of the arteries, softening of the brain, angina pectoris, all since he got the stroke. I have a nurse day and night for him as he has gotten so helpless I cannot lift him any more, but I will not lose faith, I still have hopes that he will come around again, and will try to use them again; for my nurse has great faith in your pad. A little later she is going to get a reading. Thank you kindly for the interest you take in us."
2. 6/16/31 Wife, Mrs. [947], obtained a Physical Reading.
3. 7/18/35 She obtained a second Physical Reading, under another married name, so evidently Mr. [5512] had died - no doubt before 6/16/31 when she obtained her first reading.
