Correspondence from Frieda Harris to Aleister Crowley
Rolling Stone Orchard Campden
May 9th [1942]
Dear Aleister,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
I have written to Pearson to ask him to send you a copy of an estimate which I have been trying to get from the Sun Engraving. This, it was agreed, should cover all possible expenses and give us 1000 packs of cards at £1/10 each instead [of] £10 a pack and only a 100 packs. This includes boxes and any additional expense not tax which must be left to the Sun Engraving to arrange with their usual agent.
I am concerned at this part payment and buying single blocks. It is not a good proposition because the question arises is the new block the property of Hylton, yours or mine or whose?
I foresee great complications and would suggest we should have a 3rd party to whom all subscriptions should be paid, even if it means forming a limited Tarot Co. with a treasurer.
How would Madge Porter do if I could get her to take it on?
If you don't like that idea—would Hylton do it or Cecil [Robert Cecil]. You and I with the possible chance of profits (I don't think) should not be recipients of casual cheques or we shall soon be accused of embezzling same. So far I have paid for everything and the question has not arisen.
Love is the law, love under will.
Yours,
Frieda Harris
I am very feeble. I can't do a day's job and everyone seems to lean on me and hope I will do it for them—I feel nothing is worth troubling about except leisure.
