Correspondence from Louis Culling to Karl Germer
[EXTRACT]
[12 May 1946]
As you may know by this time, Brother Jack [Jack Parsons] signed a partnership agreement with this Ron [L. Ron Hubbard] and Betty [Sara Northrup] whereby all money earned by the three for life is equally divided between the three. As far as I can ascertain, Brother Jack has put in all of his money . . . meanwhile, Ron and Betty have bought a boat for themselves in Miami for about $10,000 and are living the life of Riley, while Brother Jack is living at rock bottom, and I mean rock bottom. It appears that originally they never secretly intended to bring this boat around to the California coast to sell at a profit, as they told Jack, but rather to have a good time on it on the east coast.
