Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Gerald Yorke
July 16
"Ay, Ay, sir!" (I seem to hear the voice of the old man on the steamer when he was not in the rigging. I'll meet them in every way, but with firm correctness. (Compensation in my letter of yesterday is an error for consideration.)
Cope [Stuart R. Cope] sends proofs [of Magick in Theory and Practice] to near end of Gnostic Mass.
Saturnus [Karl Germer] paid in dollars 400 and is sending for the 600 to arrive in say a month's time. But we shall want more and lots more, unless the Krum Heller Villa plan comes off. I can't possibly draw any from Mandrake [Mandrake Press] before Jan 30 on their own showing; and the contract will prevent me selling things elsewhere. Expenses—with all this entertaining etc are fantastically heavy. I dine with the Vampire to-night. Terribly overworked but very cheerful. Brussels cured my rheumatics and nerves at a single stroke.
