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 which may be submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2024].
3. Now as we find, while there are impediments in the action of the sensory forces, there are no impediments in the normal brain development now.
4. That there HAS been an impediment is evidenced in the manner of the slow developments which have occurred in the body.
5. But the operative forces have been MOST excellent. There is little in the brain cavity that is impeding at all; less of the scar tissue than would ordinarily be found.
6. There are, then, those conditions from which the disturbing forces arise - along the cerebrospinal system, through the conjunction with the sympathetic or the vegetative nerve system; so that the brain impulse is deflected.
7. Hence the sensory reactions are impeded. These are indicated in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd, and a portion of the 4th dorsal center, and in the whole of the cervical area; especially in those areas about the brachial center, or the vagus center also.
8. It is the lack, then, as the development of the IMPULSES between the sympathetic and cerebrospinal system in these areas indicated.
9. Hence the manner in which there is the activity of the nerves to the hand, or hands, at times. This impedes then the impulses to the vocal cords, as well as the proper reaction to the rest of the nerve system; that is, to the sensory system - as to the optics, to the voice, even the vision and the hearing.

10. We find that great good has come from the massage.
11. Now - under the direction of one such as Frank Jones, Macon, Georgia - we would make GENTLE corrections in those centers, specific, as indicated. These should be made very gently; not attempting to move the segments in the first eight to ten treatments, more than to stimulate the impulse of coordination with those areas that connect WITH the cerebrospinal nerve cord in the centers indicated - and these gradually.
12. These we would make twice each week at first, or every third day, for at least six weeks; then have a rest period from same for a month; and then another period of treatments for some five to six weeks.
13. Then we should have a rest for at least three to six months; and then another such course of treatments.
14. And, doing these, we will find this body will respond and be near to normal in all of its sensory reactions, its brain developments - and be normal.
15. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) Would it be advisable for her great-aunt, Mrs. [...] [[1754]'s mother] to be with her while taking these treatments, or would a nurse be better? (A) Such an one with whom the body is most familiar, and that would be more sincere than just a hired one, would be much preferable; especially from the standpoint of the child's reaction. For there will be many days when there must be the care that is needed, because of such changes as will come about. Do these, though, and we will bring normal forces for this body; for this has been a most excellent operative condition.
17. We are through for the present. Copy to Mother " " Ass'n file (See extra copy of osteopathic directions [which was enclosed] for Dr. Jones.) .)
