Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Grady McMurtry
The Ridge, Hastings.
Sept 24 '45
Dear Grady,
93
Yours of Aug 19 has been here over a week—the weather has fought against my answering it; that and the absence of my good Miss Kingston [Crowley's secretary] on a week's holiday!
Sept 24. I have been "out of sorts" this last month. Forgive me!
I braced myself and got the Word [Word of the Equinox]; Expect it, and an answer to your two letters in full this week.
They have some kind of multigraph
machine at 1003 [1003 S. Orange Grove Avenue] and
want to issue the "Letters" one by one. I've said yes; at $5
a time. I've told
Totally exhausted; can't write
more. But—important. You fix it to spend 3 months with me—if
I'm still alive—on your discharge. Your letter shows how
much you need daily training; and with your gratuity you can
do it. Cabling
93 93/93
Love
Aleister
