Time of Reading 4:05 to 4:20 P. M. Eastern War 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; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here and those conditions that are disturbing in the experience of the entity.
3. Here we find that we have both a pathological and a psychological effect; or we have those tendencies such that from a pathological condition - influences outside the body oft affect the sympathetic or suggestive or psychic self.
4. These are the conditions as we find existent, then, with this body:
5. The blood supply indicates the sources - or the centers from which there is brought about this radiation or affectation.
6. A lesion in the 9th dorsal and in the 4th and 5th dorsal indicates in the nervous forces the areas from which the impulses to the sympathetic nervous system, or the imaginative or mental body, are connected in the disturbances with the physical forces of the body - through the activity of the assimilating system.
7. The effect upon the imaginative system goes to the brain reflexes themselves, and at such periods of repression the body is not the normal self. It isn't that the body is mentally deficient, no - but there is almost possession at such times. For the appetites and the desires or the cravings in the body are abnormal to the mental efficiency of the body. For without these the body physically and mentally is a well-balanced body.
8. In making corrections, then; there should be taken into consideration the psychological as well as the pathological or physical condition.

9. Corrections osteopathically need to be made in the 9th dorsal and through the upper area of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th dorsal; coordinating the 3rd cervical with the corrections made. There would be required at least twelve to fifteen such treatments. Have these twice a week until seven or eight have been given, then once each week for the rest of the period.
10. Then, as to the psychological condition:
11. Begin to analyze self and the relationship the entity bears with the universe and its Maker. Begin first by reading something from the Book itself. It would be well to read first the first five to six verses of the first chapter of Genesis, and in the third verse understand what it means that the knowledge is within thine own self, the light necessary for you - as [3432] - to be one of the best men God ever created. For He has promised to be with you, as an individual, if you will be with Him.
12. Then turn to Exodus 19:5. This is not talking merely to Jews or Hebrews or Israelites - it is talking to [3432].
13. Then read the 30th chapter of Deuteronomy. Again it is to you, an individual.
14. Read then the promises in the 14th, 15th, 16th and 17th of John. They are not foolishess, my friend! It's the law of the Lord! and you must one day face it!
15. Be a man! Be a man after God's own heart, not one ashamed but rightly placing the emphasis where it belongs.
16. Study these passages at periods when ye have a Radio-Active Appliance tied to you. Read them, Then close thine eyes and visualize it working within thy mind and body. You'll be proud of those about you and of yourself.
17. Do not think more highly of yourself than you ought to, but you have it in you! Make good for His sake, and for your wife's sake!
18. We are through. Two copies to Self (one for the osteopath - Dr. M. L. Richardson, Bankers Trust Bldg., Norfolk, Va.) Copy to Ass'n file " " Miss Goodall (1/3/44 GD's note: See directions [which were enclosed] and article [1800-24 Reports] explaining theory of Radio-Active Appliance.)
