"LAUGHING TORSO"
Dear Sadleir,
I have your letter of the 22nd and have noted the information.
I have looked through Crowley's Autobiography [The Confessions of Aleister Crowley] which covers his Cambridge life and there is no mention of Gille De Rais [The Banned Lecture]. I suppose it is not to be had in the secondhand book market, even at Foyle's?
Yours sincerely,
Charles S.J. Harper
Michael Sadleir, Esq., 10 & 12 Orange Street, Leicester Square, W.C.2.
