Time of Reading Stonewall Set bet. 3:30 to 4:30 P. M. Jackson Hotel, Taken 3:45 to 3:55 P. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Virginia.
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.
3. As we find, there are disturbances.
4. That the condition hasn't become much more serious is due to the exercises that have been taken and that the body has been forced to take.
5. We find that in times back there were those injuries to the coccyx end of the spine. The very nature of the pressures has caused cysts to form.
6. Then an injury or pressure to the body also caused inflammation to the organs of the genital system, causing a great deal of distress to the testes; for the injury was in one area and on that side there has been the greater damage done. These exercises that have been given have prevented this from becoming more serious.
7. Yet this cyst and its draining will gradually cause a great deal of distress unless there are measures taken to heal same.
8. As to whether this may be accomplished without there being some portion of the coccyx end of the spine removed seems rather doubtful, yet this might be done if there are the abilities of the body to keep off of its feet and rest through the periods when these applications may be made:
9. We would take internally Mullein tea prepared in this manner: Put a pinch of the dry Mullein, between the thumb and the forefinger (crumbled) in a teacup and fill with boiling water. Let this stand thirty minutes, strain through a cheese cloth or gauze, and drink when cool. Do

this each day.
10. Also apply a Plantain poultice each day to the lower end of the spine - preferably in the evening when the body is ready to retire or sleep. Use the green Plantain - about a tablespoonful to a tablespoonful of thick cream (as from the top of milk). Allow this to come almost to a boil. Spread on gauze and apply directly to the lower end of the spine.
11. These will not work so well unless the body keeps off of the feet. This will cause the areas to drain thoroughly, but with the combinations of these in the system the core should be discharged. Thus, with the rest period (requiring some two weeks), we should find healing and a correcting of the disturbance.
12. The areas of the lumbar-sacral should be adjusted osteopathically, relieving these tensions on the activities of the organs through the pelvis as related to the whole genital system.
13. Do that.
14. Ready for questions.
15. (Q) Are both openings from the same cyst? (A) Both are from the same cyst.
16. (Q) Is this a pilonidal cyst? (A) This is a cyst caused by injury and infection.
17. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Self (one for the osteopath when you are ready for these treatments - Please let us have the name and address of the one you choose.) Copy to Ass'n file " under case number for indexing (4/5/44 GD's note: If you are unable to obtain the Mullein and the Plantain locally, we would refer you to Mr. T. R. Wirsing, 1001 Third St., S.W. Roanoke, Va., a druggist who has been able to secure many of these crude drugs.)
