In living room Time of Reading of this house, 3:00 to 3:20 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Va.
1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions that may be asked.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
3. Now as we find, the disturbing conditions should have been adjusted long, long ago.
4. While there may be a great deal of help brought to the body in producing a better physical and mental coordination, under the existent conditions this will require time, patience and persistence.
5. As we find, there has been an injury to the cerebrospinal system.
6. In the coccyx area there is the lesion in the present. This has prevented and does prevent the coordination between the impulses and the activities. And with the drain this has produced upon the glandular system, we find the abilities for the activities in directing the influences and impulses become disturbing to the body, as well as the recurrent disturbances especially in sleep and when there is the closeness of the higher spiritual forces to the border conditions.
7. These all as we find work together upon the imaginative forces of the body-physical at times, and thus causing those periods when there is greater incoordination.
8. As we find in the general physical, from the material-physical standpoint - these function very well; but without the coordination we find there is the lack of those elements to keep the right balance.
9. In the changes as will be necessary, these would run near a cycle of physical change.
10. Hence as we find, in six to eight months a different

application would be necessary, owing to the changes as would be wrought as well as the natural and physical changes to the body.
11. First we would begin, then, with that adjustment as would greatly relieve those tensions upon the coccyx and the sacral area; so that the disturbances that have been indicated through the medulla oblongata in the activity of the pineals may be nearer in accord.
12. These should be given about twice a week for three or four weeks, and then left off for a week; then given three weeks again, then a rest period of a week; and so on throughout the period of six to nine months.
13. Also during each week of rest from the osteopathic treatments, but NOT during the time the treatments are kept, you see, we would take one minim of Atomidine internally, in half a glass of water each morning before the meal is taken. Continue this throughout the period, but only during each week of rest from the treatments, see? This will purify the system.
14. Throughout the entire period we would also use each evening the very low electrical vibrations. It is best for the body that there be prepared a Dry Cell Battery, with two connections of metal - preferably steel bars - upon wires that would be attached to either pole of the Dry Cell Appliance. Let the body hold these in the hand for about five minutes each evening. Well that the body's feet be placed in water, but be sure the water is in a crock and NOT in metal of any nature.
15. Do these regularly for a period of six to nine months.
16. Then we will give the changes as may bring the much nearer normal forces for this body.
17. Ready for questions.
18. (Q) To whom would you suggest he go for the osteopathic corrections? (A) Anyone that would be in sympathy with those things being attempted, who will take into consideration the length of time necessary. But do this OSTEOPATHICALLY, NOT chiropractically! Let the attitudes of those about the body, and those making the applications, be NEVER those of censure, but rather that there is given each the opportunity for ministering to a soul seeking its course to its Maker.
19. (Q) How long ago did the injury occur? (A) During the third or fourth year - in this experience.
20. (Q) Was it from a fall, or just what was the nature of it? (A) It was straddle of something. Do these if we would bring the better forces for this body.

21. We are through for the present. Copy to his brother " " Ass'n file (1/6/39 GD's notes: See extra sheet of directions [which was enclosed] for Osteopath. We would suggest such as: Dr. Curtis Hudgins or Dr. C. W. Irvin, both of the Bankers Trust Bldg., Norfolk. Child mentioned in 281-5 was given the same case number since the name was identical, but there is a strong possibility that this complete reading was for another person, especially since EC did not begin the reading by saying, "Yes, we have had this body before.")
