Dear 516 [Jane Wolfe]

 

93.

 

They have sent me G.D.'s [Gabriel Dee]. advertisement. I confess I like it not.

     

I strongly advise you to say nothing, but to look for any other kind of a job, and get on to it quietly, as soon as you reasonably can.

     

I cannot allow myself to be mixed up, even, indirectly, with any such ways of making money.

     

I do not question her sincerity or honesty, and I cannot refuse advice to any human being, but I cannot admit any such professions as honourable. Their exercise disqualifies from admission to AA and its dependent Orders.

     

Please be tactful about this. There is no need to mention the matter at all. Just slip out quietly.

Fraternally,

O.S.V. 6º=5o Imperator RR et AC

 

 

P.S. Things seem like coming right. Shall give you a holiday to do some real Work as soon as I can.

     

Love to Bayley [James Gilbert Bayley]: thank him for his letter, with its brilliantly paradoxical contradictions of his last "Contra O.P.V. [Norman Mudd]"
