Correspondence from John Yarker to Aleister Crowley

 

[EXTRACT]

 

     

 

[13 August 1912]

 

 

You seem to be acting with great liberality yourself, but I do not see in your letters how it helps to establish "in good order" the A&P Rite, except so far as to provide a home for a Rite in which there is no regularity in the establishment. [ . . . ] I wish I could get you to understand the importance of this; let the beginning be with regular Craft Masons, however small their number, & a fee of 2 g[uinea]s for 11—18°. [ . . . ] The certificates are costly, besides the parchment we have to pay 1/ each for printing. I cannot afford the expense.
