Ever so sorry to hear your news:[1] but I told you on March 15 that trouble was on the way between than and Xmas ( your planets in 6th from mid-May: he goes back, and again forward next year. So more may be coming) Curiously I had written you only an hour before your letter came.
Miss Stanton[2] played a most treacherous trick on me. Her rapacity overreached itself; she has been paid in full and that ends that.
Of course she knew your name etc: she listened to every conversation.
I don't know whether you have got Jackson's letter about the Sun-ray Lamp; he was to send you the papers to sign as you promised.
Hope to hear better news of you soon.

1—I had been operated on in hospital and was poisoned in the process.—Gerald J. Yorke. 2—Crowley's landlady when he lived at 11 Manor Place in London. See her 2 August 1938 letter to Gerald Yorke.
