9/28/31 Letter: "...Your letter, and the rdg., came ten days
ago, and I wrote to Mr. Bradley for the ash, and have waited
to hear from him, before writing you.
"The capsules have just arrived, in the morning's mail.
"You say that the dosage is two a day, but you do not say
what time, and as there are thirteen of the capsules, these
would be gone in a week. Am I to continue on with them, if
so, how long?
"You remember, in the first reading, you gave me a
prescription to be taken, and I am wondering if these
are compatible, and can they be taken together - not,
of course, at the same time.
"Dr. Kirk has given me a few treatments, from time to time,
in the past 2 yrs., but since Christmas I have been under the
care of a Dr. who is Doctor and Surgeon, but she uses the
Spectro-Chrome Therapy originated by Col. Dinghak Ghadiali.
I wonder if you have ever heard of him, or his work.
"I have been in the hands of Doctors for 7 yrs., and have had
2 major operations, but it took this woman to find out that
I had an aneurism of the aorta in the abdomen, and as I have
suffered so keenly Dr. Kirk suggested I write you.
"I have been most interested in your rdgs., and would have
asked my questions in the first one, but Dr. Kirk suggested
that I not - just why I do not know.
"I should very much like to have a life rdg., but simply can
not afford it, at this time. When you reply to my questions
will you kindly let me know what the charges for a life rdg.
would be?
"Thanking you for your kindness in this matter, and which I
greatly appreciate, I am..."
9/30/31 EC's letter to Mrs. [
5570]: "I was very glad to have
yours of the 28th. No, I do not think the ash will interfere
with any of the other properties given you to take. If you
ordered the quarter grain capsules, one of these would make
a DAY'S dose - rather than taking up two capsules a day. The
proper way would be to take the ash 2 or 3 weeks, then to
rest from it for about a week and then begin again - if you
feel it necessary. Our experience with this has been that
it has given more vitality and resistance in the system than
most anything else could, and it supplies it by the system's
taking on more oxygen through the activities of the ash
itself in the system. As to the time the dosage would be
taken, I'm sure you would find it better to take one dose
about 9 or 10 o'clock in the morning, and the other about
3 or 4 in the afternoon - for that is the time when our
vitality is the weakest in our waking state, or when we have
need of aid for our vitality. I'm sure you will find the ash
compatible with the prescription given.
"Yes, I have heard a great deal of the Spectro-Chrome
Therapy, as this is used by a very prominent man in our
vicinity [Dr. Carl Frischkorn (?) M.D., N.D., D.C.] who has
a very large following.
"I certainly hope that you will receive the benefits you are
seeking through these channels. From the time you have spent
with doctors, I'm sure you have grown to be very dubious
about many things you have been told by them. I wish it were
possible for you to spend a while at Va. Beach, where you
might be in closer touch with the work itself and know
something of the results that have been obtained by
others in the application of the information given.
"The life readings are $25.00. If you ever decide to have
one, I hope you can be present at the time - for I am sure,
from our past experience, it would be worth a great deal
more to you. Many people consider the life rdgs. the
most VALUABLE information for individuals in understanding
themselves, and just WHY they are having to go through
so many trials or adverse circumstances. To many this is
helpful, just to know WHY - but in others it rather makes
for rebellion, which of course isn't good. You know yourself
as to how it would affect you, but I believe it would be
helpful.
"Thanking you for your ltr., and assuring you we would be
glad to hear from you from time to time, I am - with all good
wishes... P.S. Empty the ash OUT of the capsule into water
when it is taken."
10/12/31 Letter: "...Your ltr. of Sept. 30th was greatly
appreciated, and I immediately sent to Mr. Bradley for more
ash. Was to have it on hand, but before I finished the first
bottle, I had to stop them - however, I cut the dose down to
half before stopping.
"You suggested I get the eighth grain capsules.
"The reason I was compelled to stop was they made me
perspire. It did so each time, soon after I would take them.
This I did not mind, but I became depressed, and could not
seem to sleep.
"My sleep is a thing I must have but I could not seem to
relax.
"I am taking Rorer's Neuro Bromides. It is Valerian and
three Bromides - Strontium, Sodium, and ammonia. It helps
more than the one you gave but I stopped, and took the one
you gave at times.
"Could you tell me what the reaction should be. I am a most
peculiar case as doctors have always been provoked at me
because I would not TAKE MEDICINE. They did not stop to
realize it was my loss because I would not take them.
"Too, it is so with some foods, eating, and it all reacts on
my nervous system - my depression is great enough, so I do
not want to add to it - but perhaps I did not take it just
right - but I took it with all the faith in the world,
hoping I was going to have relief from this intense
suffering through my mouth and head.
"When I am able I will come to Virginia for a life reading.
I do so want to know what to do to make my life, and others
around me, what it should be. To do so we must know our
faults and short comings.
"Thanking you for any information you can give me on the
subject of the ash..."
10/19/31 EC's ltr. to Mrs. [
5570]: "I have yours of the
12th, and I am always glad to hear from you and to try to
be of help in any way I can.
"Yes, we quite often find individuals who do not react to
prescriptions as the book says they should. This has usually
been the type and class of patients where our information
has been able to help the most; for seemingly it takes the
individuals where they are, and not where any rule or rote
has said they SHOULD BE from the reactions shown in their
systems. I think you have done exactly right in making these
changes from time to time. Have you been taking the ash
properly? While it comes to you in the capsule, it is not
to be taken in the capsule. It should be emptied from the
capsule onto your tongue and washed down with half a glass of
water, or it may be stirred into the water first. Taking it
confined in a container creates results such as you describe.
The activation of the ash on the body releases atomic oxygen
in the system. Hence is the greater purifier for the blood,
as well as a stimuli to the nerve system. Of course, these
work together. Hence, as you may see, if this was taken - as
it were - in a LUMP in the system, the first reaction would
be to the RESPIRATORY system. So, I think you would find it
better to pour this into a glass of water, or on the tongue
- as suggested. When there is the application of the
ultra-violet ray, this ACCENTUATES the activity of oxygen
released within the system. Hence is an aid to any character
of disturbance that may be in the lymph or emunctory
circulation, or to any PORTIONS of the muco-membranes of the
organs themselves; for it relieves pressure from them, to be
sure, by clarifying the blood pressure going through them.
This should be the activity, and is supposed to be the
activity, of the ash. Let me know just the manner in which
you have been taking the ash, when you take it, that we
may record this as another one of the actions of it on
the physical body.
"I hope you will let us hear from you from time to time. We
are anxious to see you get results, and when you have the
chance I hope you will come down to see us personally, that
you may know more about the results obtained by others, and
more about the phenomena itself. I'm sure you will find the
life rdg. most interesting, as so many others have..."
