EasyTransferI2C with 3 Arduinos - trouble w/ Master Tx & Rx

The library is making things easier but you're trying to use it in a manner it is not intended for. It just tries to give an easier interface to the Wire library but it's not able to give the I2C bus capabilities it does not have.

Have you understood the I2C paradigm of master and slave? Your master is still configured as a slave (Wire.begin() call with an address parameter), this way you cannot send commands to the slaves.
