1. GC: You will have before you the treasure located near Kelly's Ford, Culpepper County, Va., and the work which has been done in attempting to locate this by A. C. Preston, Hugh Lynn Cayce and Gray Salter. You will give the number of feet to the treasure from the present excavation made in the last few days, and direct these individuals just how they should proceed. You will answer the questions which will be asked concerning same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the operations here, as have been made in attempting to locate the treasure here. As we find, this is still intact, and they have opened to the place, yet this has been not wholly uncovered. In reaching same, will be necessary that the excavations be cleared and continue into that portion among the logs and rocks to the south and west end, where these are being - or have been heretofore - uncovered. Do not give same up until located, or until there is not a checking with the instruments and the information - see? Ready for questions.
3. (Q) We have dug in place indicated by indicator and have only found driftwood, logs and rock. Should we proceed directly towards the river past this indication. (A) This, as we find, is not all driftwood, but proceed rather where the ash indicates where the fire and rocks were poured together with the cache, see?
4. (Q) What was the relation to the treasure of the three large logs located in the south corner of present excavation, and what is location of treasure from these? (A) These are the portion of the covering of the treasure, as we find.
5. (Q) What was the relation to the treasure of the large rock we moved Friday from the west corner of present excavation? (A) This is next to that that's covering the treasure.
6. (Q) Was the cave-in which occurred Saturday morning caused by natural conditions or a shifting of the treasure? (A) Rather that of a COMBINATION of conditions, as was the noises, as was the voices, as was the conditions attempting

to - See, there is a division in the forces as respecting those that would locate and those that would not allow same to be located. Hence the disturbances.
7. (Q) What should be the attitude of A. C. Preston, Hugh Lynn Cayce and Gray Salter in relation to these noises that they heard? (A) In that same prayerful attitude that these will be used in the way and manner, when located, as has been promised, see? Keep the work until there is no checking with the instrument and the information. We are through with this reading.
