Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to the Home Office
[EXTRACT]
[7 November 1929]
I sent her [Astarte Lulu] to live on a farm in the Oise départment of France. She is now flourishing and it is time to send her to a good school in England.
It is evidently necessary to the proper education of the child that she be placed at once under better influences in the country of her only available parent until she can acquire citizenship by residence, when the adoption can take place. I therefore respectfully petition you to allow her to come to England as an act of grace.
I have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant,
Aleister Crowley
