1. GC: You will have before you [779], ..., Ala. Also the information as has been given this body in previous business and life readings. You will also have before you his family, home life, and the circumstances and conditions surrounding same. You will also have before you [779]'s present business associations (J. Thorburn and The Georgia Marble Works of ..., Ala.) and the general moral, ethical and environments of the same and the conditions that are detrimental to [779] and to the success of the business. You will please tell this body in full as to how he is progressing, and what would the forces advise as to the proper course for this body to pursue under the present conditions and circumstances to bring about connection or conditions that will be more satisfactory, happier, contentment, satisfied mind, and a permanent location with success for himself. You will answer the questions I will ask you regarding same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [779]. This we have had before. Also that information as has been given the body as concerning its associations and relations, both as to business, as to family, and as conditions in general respecting the development morally, mentally, physically, financially.
3. Now, much may be said respecting conditions in every wise concerning the conditions at present - variations in that as was given, variations in that as has come about, apparently, in adverse to that as was stipulated, and those conditions that are unsatisfactory and those that cause turmoil, trials, at the present time. The multiplying of words as respecting this might, or might not, mean much or little. That to be met is the conditions as they exist. There seems little opportunity in the present of the complete or full settlement with the body for considerations as have been want to be made, yet were the body to withdraw from the association altogether at once, this would leave the body in a very unsatisfactory way in a pecuniary way; yet there is
779-17 Page 2
almost as little satisfaction in attempting to go on with the present surroundings as there would be to attempt to seek others, even from a cold trail.
4. Then, the better condition would be to accept conditions as they exist for the present, taking hold of the proposition as part salesman, part indoor work, and through the regular channels of trade and of papers, magazines, of the trade reestablish or seek connections in the district wherein the body has been given that in these districts, channels, or conditions, would the better association, the more satisfactory conditions come and be for the body. Would the body follow these, we find - even as has been given - that the body would be the more content, the more satisfied, the more satisfactory conditions coming into the life, for the self, for those loved once dependent upon same, and for the development of the body in the mental, physical, and spiritual way and manner. Then, do that, for the conditions at present. Ready for questions.
5. (Q) Should the present conditions not permit change - (A) (Interrupting) This has just been given.
6. (Q) It has been given in previous readings that this body should locate East Coast - (A) (Interrupting) This has just been given, as to how, the way, and the manner in which the body should go about to seek the associations, locations, of such a condition for the body to serve in, through, with, for, by, and how.
7. (Q) Will the entity success in receiving from the Georgia Marble Works the balance of profits - (See 779-14, 3-A which warned of just such an entanglement.) (A) (Interrupting) This has just been given, that only in keeping in touch with and for the time being, will the body be able to gain any of a COMMENSURATE amount from this source.
8. (Q) Is there a possibility of this body becoming associated with the work of Edgar Cayce or the Institute? If so, in what capacity and when may same be expected? (A) This may be expected when the body is in the conditions and surroundings that will enable the body to become associated and connected with same.
9. (Q) It was given in previous readings [See 779-10] that this entity would receive much of the worlds goods in the year 1928. Please tell why - (A) (Interrupting) Has the body acted in the way and manner as was given for the body to act through those periods when the body should be in the position to receive same? [See 779-11 through 779-15.] Answer these in self - SEE the variations, and WHY these have come about. We are

through for the present.
