Correspondence from Frieda Harris to Gerald Yorke
Rolling Stone Orchard Chipping Campden Glos.
Dec. 31st 1940
Dear Lieutenant Yorke,
Thank you ever so much. As you say, the response to my appeal only raised only 1-10- and the rent was owing. Now, I have written to the landlord to find out what is owing, and if you do not mind, I will put your kind subscription to mine and get A.C. the right side of his flat difficulties. His address is—
The Gardens— Middle Warberry Rd Torquay.
He has a semi-basement flat at £2 a week, not too bad—about as cheap as he can get because he must be on electric current for his asthma machine. I would send him the cheque, only I am afraid it will disappear and the rent will still be in arrears. He is difficult. He seems to be working on a new book on Yi King. I find it hard to understand at all—Michael Houghton seems to think he can do something about publishing the Tarot [The Book of Thoth]. Would you like to look at the manuscript?—I have 2 copies and could send you one.
I will send your book at once.
Again thanking and I shall be glad to know if you would prefer me to send the cheque straight to A.C.
Yours sincerely
Frieda Harris
