1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [973]; this we have had before.
2. Conditions are still rather serious. However, there has been some response to the applications of those things administered. And the body is some little bit easier than it has been.
3. The Ash is being sent. As soon as this is received, we would give same as indicated.
4. Keep up the juices that we have indicated for the respiratory system.
5. We would apply a pack over the liver and almost the whole of the abdomen, to make for an easing of the conditions there; prepared in this manner:
6. Slice large raw onions and apply as a poultice; just their natural temperature, do not heat. A little corn meal may be mixed with the onions to hold them together, if so desired; and put between cloths; a thin cloth or gauze next to the body and a heavier cloth over the top of the poultice. Apply this over the liver area and almost all of the abdomen. Use just enough of the dry meal to make same stick; no water. The meal with the juice of the onions will make it adhere so that it can be handled the more easily.
7. We find that tepid enemas would be helpful in making for the eliminations.
8. These we would follow.
9. Ready for questions.
10. As indicated, we would continue with the syrup internally as made from the onion juice and the lemon juice.
11. Give the Ash as soon as it may be had; and we will find there should be responses from the conditions even as they exist.
12. However, we should NOT allow this condition to localize. So, later it will be necessary that there be some stimulation osteopathically for the distribution of the

poisons; that they may not centralize or continue to make for such distresses; that is, the drainages or the eliminations should be stimulated by osteopathic treatments. These should come within four or five days; of course, the body is too low at the present for these, but if there is the response - in four to five days we would have the osteopath.
13. Do that.
14. We are through with this reading. Copy to Miss [...] - Special Delivery " " Ass'n file Telegram sent today: Slice large raw onions. Mix with sufficient meal to stick.

Dr. John Henry Newman, 1310 No. 24th St. Dr. Martha L. Bond, 1612 Fourth Court, West. Dr. Woodall is familiar with our work, having treated individuals who have been sent to him through the readings.
