I enclose the Word [Word of the Equinox].
The Omen is especially remarkable: it reads in part like a direct reference to Hitler, also to his merry men. Look up your Yi!
I have heard from Karl [Karl Germer]. Air Mail from near Pau, just 4 months in transit. The modern craze for speed! He was (Nov 16) in an internment Camp, and all set to go to U.S.A. Needed exit from France, and transit permits for Spain and Portugal. Hope he's safely there by now.
Ham [Gerald Hamilton] was at the Café de Paris for the "incident": saw his boy friend killed before his eyes, and was blown "almost on to the balcony". Wrote me from in bed with the "Sisters of the Holy Family".
If you should take any interest in my own doings, write and ask. I should very much like to have news of you.
