Correspondence from William Wynn Westcott's Account of the Current Situation
March 20, 1900.
Frater Yeats [W.B. Yeats] called without warning, and said—What is your attitude towards Mathers [MacGregor Mathers]? and his pupils? Those I represent are inclined to throw off his chief-ship, because he is so erratic, and makes offensive assertions about his position, and so we are quarrelling with him. He attacks your late position—I answered—I can take no part in your affairs—I know nothing of your complaints—I will not interfere—even to defend myself—unless I am forced—You owe much to Mathers—if you do not like his rule, you should resign—you can't contest with him.
