1. LBC: You have before you [4524], who is in this room. He is before you now. You will see him.
2. EC: Yes, we have him here. We have had him before.
3. LBC: I want you to go over him carefully, examine him thoroughly, and tell us what his condition is now.
4. EC: The general condition here of the body and its functions, are bettered from what we had before, though we have had too much chemical change in the rebuilding cellular force of the body, through the chemical action of too much medicine taken into the system. We still have not enough of a unison between the different organisms of the system, or in the body. We still have some of the same conditions, though improved, here in the stomach that we have had - some that are produced from the same effects that we have had before. We have a general condition in the body of [4524] improved from what we had before.
5. Now, the condition we have in the body here of [4524] is this: the non-development of the cellular force, or rebuilding of the wall of the stomach, the upper portion here: the action of the gastric juices in the stomach itself to act onto them themselves: the over-taxation of the white blood - the throwing out of the wall the calculous forces that form in it: an over-quantity of leukocytes combined together in one position or one place from the muscular or nervous forces of the body, to form themselves into the hard or taxed condition we have still, tends to carry on this force as we have here before.
6. The lack of the power of the walls in themselves, brought about by the condition over the nervous condition in the system, produced the same condition we had before and as we have here now in the same forces, though bettered. We have as it were now in the force that it has become impregnated with the forces of nature to obliterate by absorption, or that thrown out of the cellular force as through the circulation of the lymphatics, the kidneys, and in this condition and in this position as we have through the intestine or the stomach in action on the upper force here, or the entrance of the tube into the stomach itself, the
4524-3 Page 2
mouth and esophagus. The force as produced in the body through these conditions in the system in its action of abnormality in the body is fear, or lack of self-confidence, brought about by the action of forces on the matter through the sensory organism, as we have had. The impressions received to the mind carry their forces to the nerve ends of the forces as applied through the body, as we have the brain the seat of all nervous, or the place wherein we produce the action, or show where the action is produced over the body, as we receive the impressions through the sensory system: that is, the eyes, nose, hearing, touch or feeling. An impressions that is made to the system is produced by the ends of the these forces, or through those along the spinal cord here, as through the plexuses, the solar plexus, the cardiac plexus, the celiac and iliac plexuses - through the whole system. And it is this condition we have through that of the body, of carrying the cellular forces through the system for the organization of a human body, as we have the condition we have described here in body of [4524]. In its action in the nervous forces in this condition as we have through the system, we have then a refractory nervous system, from its cellular rebuilding, or its cellular forces as we have from its plexuses, the conjunction between the sympathetic and cerebrospinal, or that of the lymphatic as described, through the capillary circulation of the body. This condition has brought up the impressions that have been made and are being made on the body and mind of [4524], producing its effects through these channels as we have shown through that of the sensory, or that of the sexual organs themselves, as excitement of these brings to bear onto the mind forces bringing about the expulsion of the blood to the capillaries, or the dizzy condition to the system. Or the overloading of the stomach brings about the same condition.
7. The effect as we have onto the body as we have produced from before by the treatment we have had, in the condition we have that of forces which act onto the nerves - or that of the electrical forces applied through that of reverse coil or that of straight electricity - or the forces which we deposit in the body act to the nervous condition and we assist the conjunction of the sympathetic and cerebrospinal nerves in applying to the muscular forces the restraining agent of potash into the system to bring about the expulsion into the capillaries of particles that should be taken up by the intestinal circulation or liver. We have had none of the repelling forces as we should have had through that of relaxing of the muscular forces only and allowing properties
4524-3 Page 3
to be absorbed through the system through the sweat glands or expulsion through the eliminating powers of the kidneys or liver, and is allowed to go back into the system, being taken up by the same calculous forces in the blood and expulsion of it through the capillaries or the skin itself. Of course the condition in the abrasions on the body show that. That is the exterior; it has nothing to do with the condition in the body here.
8. (Q) Has the condition of the spine improved? (A) The condition as we have is through the spine itself, or through the cellular forces rebuilding the spine, the circulation or the muscular forces. The circulation has been retarded by things carried in that should not have been. The muscular force is the same. That of the nervous forces is better.
9. (Q) Has the tightened condition of the muscles of the walls of the stomach improved any? (A) No muscular force is improved except through the tearing up of the cells in the stomach itself through the state of absorption.
10. (Q) What treatment would you prescribe for the present? (A) Same as we have before, except not leave the stomach in the same condition. We have a condition in the stomach to bring about a cleansing of the stomach, or have allowed to be carried through the system that by capillary retraction with the muscular force, and relaxing the muscular force through the intestinal tract to produce a rejuvenation of these through the gastric juices, the pancreas, duodenum, liver, through the intestinal digestion, through the stomach itself and pancreas, and we have allowed the condition to become over-filled, through the lack of taking properties into the system of the right sort. We have had too much of one kind.
11. (Q) Did he stop the milk diet too soon? (A) No; he ought to have had something else with it.
12. (Q) What should the diet be now? (A) As through that of buttermilk, or that of light wafers as we had here through the expulsion of cellular, in that of gluten, or as we have in wafers, and that of a peptonized condition to act onto the action of the intestinal and stomach digestion - act with that of the gastric juices, not to produce more hydrochloric than we have lactic or peptic in the stomach of a normal quantity, else we produce a gaseous condition to form back through the action of decomposed matter, as we have through butter milk itself, onto the gastric juice in the stomach, as it strikes that of the pancreatic juices which will not produce through the
4524-3 Page 4
rest of the intestinal tract that of a decomposition of matter to lie in the stomach. In other words, we need to relax the muscular condition more over the body, shake up the liver - let it act. Keep the colon empty as much as possible: that is, after is passes through the intestine itself. Let the action be in the upper bowels as much as possible. Keep the lower cleansed. Keep up the applications as we had before over the body.
13. (Q) With the electricity? (A) Electrical forces applied for the nervous condition over the body? Keep away from these conditions as we have through that of the condition from the sexual force here.
14. (Q) Any other treatment you would prescribe for the present? (A) No.
15. (Q) Any stoppage in the alimentary canal? (A) Should not be, as we have the forces here. You see, we have this condition as we had before in that of the larger, the colon itself. We need to keep it cleansed out more.
16. (Q) The nerves of the broken arm - has that anything to do with the present condition! (A) Only sympathetically. Nothing to do directly. We have that here before.
17. (Q) Have the nerves encased the callus at the old break in the arm that was broken! (A) The arm on the left side. As the walls of any broken tissue or part in the body is thrown out we form what would be termed a calculus condition; not of hard or bone condition.
18. (Q) Any calloused condition of the nerve? (A) We have the condition here as we have here before. We have the condition here, we have around any broken tissue in the body. We have it in this wound here. We have a condition produced not of calcium, or hard, or horn, or bone, or nails, but of muscular force thrown out by the circulation of leukocytes to produce a condition to guard it against the destruction of forces in the body itself.
19. (Q) This treatment will relieve the condition, will it? (A) Do it.
