1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.
2. EC: Now, we find the conditions very much different for the body at the present from that as we have had before, yet the causes, or the physical conditions which produce the condition in body at present, causing the distresses to the system, are of the nature as we have had here before. Though the change in the constitution and in the resistive abilities of the body we find very much different, and the conditions as producing same of climatic and of water conditions more than of diet, as has been before, as was producing same before, now brings more distressing conditions to the system. Hence the lacerations, the condition as is produced in the swelling and inflammation shown in mesenteric system, and the effect of same as is produced in the whole body, alimentary canal specifically, inflammation through intestines. These, we see, are now in a very precarious condition. This may be assisted and helped.
3. We would, for these conditions at present, bathe the body often, or in portions of the body, with rub alcohol, to reduce temperature, adding to same soon after those properties of olive oils rubbed well into the system, especially over the groin and along the spine in lumbar and in lower dorsal region, giving internally small doses limewater and of cinnamon water, equal parts, to settle the stomach, reduce irritation. Also giving these properties as medicinal properties, in small quantity, until the system can retain same sufficient to be of assistance to the body.
4. Then, in Peptotol, 4 ounces, put:
20% solution Yellow Saffron Tea.......2 ounces, Senna.................................4 grains, Licorice Compound.....................5 grains.

Shaking solution well together, then give in small quantities until the system is able to retain same, using ice packs on head, neck, to reduce temperature in the body.
5. Let the diet be those of arrow root, junket, and of such natures, that are easily assimilated in system.
6. Well that enemas be given at times to reduce temperature. Also which may be followed with egg enema, for the building up and resistive forces in intestinal trouble, and as food for system. These will be better taken in this manner than through system, until we can assist the body to gain equilibrium.
7. All water as is drunk shall have particles of elm, and Yellow Saffron Tea may occasionally be given. Not too much of stimulants in any nature, save that as necessary to keep heart's action normal.
8. Do that.
