Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Gerald Yorke
55 Avenue de Suffren, Paris, VII
November 14th, 1928.
Care Frater:
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Things appear to be a little brighter in New York. You should in fact get some welcome news by next Thursday. I have no doubt that I can keep afloat till then.
I think prospects here are very good. Stapley was to have telephoned last night but did not do so. Probably he will tonight. We should hear from Ogden [C. K. Ogden] too at the end of the week, and I am inclined to think that in view of my present aspects we might easily score a double event. There are hopes of getting one of Hunt's [Carl de Vidal Hunt] people interested. A certain number of miracles of a very obscure nature have occurred. I can't at present foresee the issue.
Love is the law, love under will.
Yours fraternally,
666.
P.S. I have not heard from you about the Geomancy box.[1] We ought to have this ready to put on the market at Easter.
666.
Gerald Yorke, Esq., 9, Mansfield Street, London, W. 1.
1—[This refers to a Geomancy Box he was trying to market. The geomancy box was first called The Finger of Fate. The needle as of a compass in the centre of a circle. You approach your forefinger nearly to it until your body heat causes the needle to swing round. Withdraw finger and the needle stops, pointing to a number. You look up the number in the pamphlet and the word is your answer. It failed: the delicate balance broke down when the box was moved about—G.J. Yorke.]
