Time of Reading 12:00 Noon - Eastern Standard Time. Monroe County, Florida.
1. GC: You will have before you the treasure as has been located in readings by you from Broad Creek Channel, Monroe County, Florida. Diligent search as been made for this treasure. Many stakes have been driven as markers. Will you tell us which one of these stakes, or probes, is nearest the hidden treasure, and how this stake is marked, and how treasure may be located from same? You will answer any questions I might ask you.
2. EC: Yes, we find that treasure as has been located still IS, and is where same has been located.
3. Now, diligent search has been made for same, without success, and many stakes have been driven that there may be a location made from stakes driven.
4. These locations will not be made from stakes.
5. The conditions as have surrounded and as do surround the search for this treasure, have brought about many complications in the minds and in the actions of individuals.
6. The information has been given as to how this treasure might be located by two individuals [[943] and [2671]'s son] who might make their minds as an open book and correlate information as given concerning the location of the treasure.
7. To give stakes as have been marked, these may be given - but is the mind of individuals seeking treasure or testing the authority of those who would assist in giving information to be beneficial to individuals?
8. Information as is being given should be sought - not seek to test, nor to try, the powers that be, else we find condemnation is brought to one's self through that very act of the creation of contradictory conditions within the mind, the heart, and the purpose of individuals that would trust - for, as has been given and said of old, "A stiff-necked people seek a sign which shall not be given unto them," is as applicable in the present conditions as it was in and among those seeking that they might test and give to self

satisfaction as to the source and supply of information concerning things seen and unseen.
9. Now, we have given the information aright, and when same was followed aright the result would be satisfactory to all that seek to do that which is right and just before those forces as would bring aid, help, understanding, strength, and the correct division of the words of truth, which are of life - for in application does one find understanding; not in questioning as to whether the source is or is not endowed with the super normal conditions of an unseen world. This as a sign to such:
10. Mend thine ways, oh men, lest a greater fault overtake thee in thine own household, and in thine acts in and before men, and the good as is thought in thine heart turns to gall, and the good be evil spoken of that would seek thine undoing - for the heart of man is - of MAN - ever ready to seek evil, and the heart of him that would declare the glory of the Creative Forces are in that manner of APPLYING that already obtained.
11. Then seek first to make thine own heart aright within thee, that the ways of the Lord may be known and shown in thine actions, one with another, for he that would do good must first make SELF aright, and in thine own self find that at-oneness with Him; for well has it been spoken, that "My spirit beareth witness with THY spirit," and unless that bearing of witness is perfect within thine own self, then thou shalt find thine own heart troubled, and the day of reckoning is near at hand.
12. Repent, then, thou, of thine worldly understanding, and seek to do that as is well pleasing unto Him who gave himself a ransom for him who would seek to do as was given, "Love the Lord, thy God, and thy neighbor as thyself."
13. We are through.
