CROWLEY
My dear Kyllmann,
Crowley's solicitors have asked me to supply them at the published price with two copies of "Laughing Torso" as they find "that the book has apparently been withdrawn from the libraries and booksellers and we have been unable to obtain a copy".
Would you send me along two copies and let me know the published price, of which I do not seem to have a record.
I hope to send you early next week Lilley's opinion on the points raised at the recent conference.
I write to you in this matter because I think Sadleir is away at the week-ends, but if I should write to him in future please let me know.
Yours sincerely,
Charles S. J. Harper
Otto Kyllmann, Esq., 10 & 12, Orange Street, Leicester Square, W.C.2.
