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: [After repeating suggestion in an undertone]: Yes, we have the body here, [3662].
3. As we find, there are disturbances pathological and psychological that are preventing the better physical functionings in this body.
4. These can be materially aided, yet we find it should be under entirely different conditions from those existing in the present. There should be more of the personal interest than that from the institutional or collective applications. For here sedatives, that are the main portion of the treatments, will only make for less possibility of this disturbance being fully eliminated and the preventing of its re-occurrence. For unless proper corrections are made, there must eventually be caused a full possession or such a deterioration of the gray tissue or cell matter in the spinal cord as to set up deterioration in brain reflexes and reactions.
5. For as we find, there are those pressures existing in the coccyx, and in the lower lumbar and sacral areas, that have prevented and that do prevent the normal closing of the lyden [Leydig?] gland in its activity through the body. Thus we have those periods when the body is averse to body-passion and again is as if being possessed by same, causing mental aberrations and imaginations, with the sensory system in its reflexes bringing an illness of whatever nature is indicated in any conversation about the body. These cause fears, dreads and such conditions throughout the body.

6. There should not necessarily be needed a trained nurse, but a Christian person or a sympathetic Christian nurse with practical religious tendencies; not a fanatic, but practical, applying that she professes, rather than professing that others should apply in their experience.
7. Then, such an environment is needed in a more open surrounding, or at home, or at some quiet place where there can be a great deal of companionship, of study, of reasoning, yes of spiritual reasoning together.
8. Also there should be twice each day the electrically driven vibrator over the area of the coccyx, the sacral and the lumbar, for 10 to 15 to 20 minutes.
9. Immediately following the use of the vibrator, give the body a gentle massage over the same areas with an equal combination of camphorated oil and peanut oil.
10. This may at some period, during the first, second or third, or even to the 12 or 15 treatments, apparently cause some excitement, some abnormalcy to the body. This is why the treatment should be given by a practical nurse.
11. For 30 minutes only 3 times each week for this body, preferably when the body is prepared for retiring in the evening, we would use the low Wet Cell Appliance to carry Chloride of Gold vibratorially to the body, in the proportions of one grain to each ounce of distilled water.
12. Make the Appliance regular strength.
13. The copper plate would be attached to the 4th lumbar center. The larger plate, through which the Gold Solution passes vibratorially, would be attached to the lacteal duct and umbilical center, which on this body will be the width of 3 fingers from the navel center to the right, and 2 fingers up from that point.
14. Do disconnect and take the connection from the solution when not in use. Put together about 20 minutes before it is to be attached to the body. Keep the U-shape wire in the solution and the attachment plates very clean. Rub them off with the emery paper each time before attaching to the body, and each time when taking them off from the body.
15. Do these and we may bring conditions such that conception would be a helpful influence to the body, while under present conditions, it would not only be detrimental, but would be practically assuring that there would not be a correction of the disturbance. For these cells must be closed, must be functioning normally before creative energies through the system would be made manifest.
16. Do these and we will bring near to normal conditions for this body.
17. Ready for questions.
3662-1 Page 3
18. (Q) How long should these treatments be kept up in this manner? [Conductor's question for clarification] (A) At least 90 days, changing the Gold Solution and the Charging Solution every 30 days.
19. (Q) Is her home the best place for her after leaving the sanatorium? (A) As indicated, either the home or some quiet rest home.
20. (Q) Will this condition continue to recur? (A) Read what has just been indicated. It will, unless corrections are made, and these will be made not necessarily by chiropractic or osteopathic changes, but by massage with the properties indicated and the character of treatment suggested. Use the cup applicator of the electrical vibrator, stimulating the segments in the coccyx, the lumbar and sacral, that the circulation may be correctly affected. Even 30 minutes may not be too long to give the vibrator treatments. Do not use the hard knob or flat applicator, but the cup, that is fairly stiff, you see.
21. (Q) Can her mother help her recover completely? (A) She may help, but there should be a companion nurse for at least half the time or longer.
22. (Q) Is there danger of suicide, as before? (A) Not if we do these things. Without - well, the body is not responsible, as indicated. This is possession, you see. But this comes and goes. Do these things and we will bring near to normal conditions for this body.
23. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Husband Copy to Ass'n file " for Loose-leaf book in library for indexing (See extra sheet of directions [which was enclosed] to be sent to Mr. A. M. Godfrey, 2709 Lafayette Blvd., Norfolk, Va., for preparing the Wet Cell Appliance to be used in this individual case. Also article explaining theory of this appliance.)
