Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Karl Germer
[EXTRACT]
[25 August 1932]
I am speaking on "The Philosophy of Magick" at a lunch to 600 people on September 15: so hope to do big business.
Yorke [Gerald Yorke] is intractable so far. I may have to sue him. Can you send me copies of any letters from him or to him showing negligence and mismanagement? E.g. his sending the whole of the pictures when we only wanted 75 . . . As soon as he finfs he can't sneak off with our £3000 he'll propose a reasonable settlement, & take credit to himself for his noble conduct. Oh, very English!
His cowardice is revolting. If he had only stuck to his guns, we should all be in clover. Even as it is, things are looking up all round.
I do wish you'd write a really nice letter to Mrs. Busch [Bertha Busch]. It is the only point at issue between us . . . After all, you had nothing but great kindness from her.
