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, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2387].
3. As we find, there are very serious disturbances. These have continued to grow worse, owing to the pressures produced by the uremic poisonings.
4. In the beginning, as we find, these arose from the general nervous collapse; that is, the physical forces reached that condition where there was a breakdown, due to the absence of those vital energies to create the normal reactions along the cerebrospinal system, with the coordination of cerebrospinal and sympathetic.
5. Hence we have a physical and a mental collapse - and an incoordination arising especially through the activities in the 9th dorsal area.
6. As we find, the greater help might be obtained by the application of Turpentine Stupes over the kidney area, as well as over the pubic center to assist in draining the bladder. We would apply these stupes for at least an hour, then rest about an hour, then apply again, and so on. The proportions would be about four ounces of Turpentine to a gallon of water. Wring the cloths out of this and apply across the back as well as across the abdomen low down, so that the action is to drain the bladder.
7. The continued use of catheter will be very detrimental.
8. Unless something is done soon, the pressures produced upon the brain forces, causing the vital energies to continue to be used up, will produce the convulsions that will rupture the brain centers; and thus cause a condition of separation.
9. Every fifteen to twenty minutes give a teaspoonful of

Beef Juice, and let this just be sipped if possible. Every third day give a teaspoonful of beef juice AND a teaspoonful of wine, these alternated, you see.
10. If the body responds - after there has been some reaction - begin massaging the body from the base of brain to the end of the spine. This may not be given until after there has been some reaction.
11. These offer the hope; though as we find, if the condition remains much longer as it now is we will have hemorrhages in the brain - from this nerve pressure.
12. Ready for questions.
13. We are through for the present. Copy to Miss [813] - Phoned also " " Ass'n file
