Correspondence from Karl Germer to Jane Wolfe
K.J. GERMER 260 West 72nd Street New York, N. Y.
March 5, 1948
Dear Jane,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Please understand that there is plenty of time for the Yorke [Gerald Yorke] papers. Take a rest, whenever required and don't strain your eyes! We need them.
Do you need photostats of the sigils? I'll have them done here if you have difficulty. But send your typescript on even without them; I can send them later. I believe I told you, if I have them done here, I want to get about 25 for later copies; we cannot think of a reprint for quite a while.
Re Paul [Paul Millikin]: May-be I'll meet him when I get out there. I now plan to leave (by bus, if it is not too strenuous) March 29, take in a call on Brethren in Ontario, Can., and Chicago, and arrive April 4th at Barstow. I hope by that time legal matters will be in shape.
When there, I want to arrange for Grady [Grady McMurtry] and yourself to come up for a general discussion of A∴A∴ matters amongst us. There are things to be prepared as a sort of preliminary to the clause # 14 of which I sent you a copy. And I want you, Georgia [Georgia Schneider], Grady and Max [Max Schneider] to be present. Nobody else, so far. I have not mailed Roy [Roy Leffingwell] a copy of that Notice yet. I am still doubting whether I should at all notify him and the other brethren, unless I do so much later, after I have had a chance to study the original, and other papers.
I am enclosing a letter which came to-day from Frederick [Frederic Mellinger]. Forget his three lines in the address; he didn't know any better, then. I have no time to copy it; please return the original; I thought it would interest you. A.C. before his death predicted a rise and success to Frederic's work. He has been working hard during the last months at the production of the German version of the well-known play "Our Town" by Thorton Wilder at the Bremen Theater (in German theater never means a movie house). And he played the leading role himself. This letter must have been written after the first production. Believe me, I as well as Sasha [Sascha Germer] (who loves F.[rederic] dearly) are very happy about F.'s rise from the depth of his years of tribulation from 1933 to when he came to New York. And we hope he will keep on Going.—I am sending this letter primarily for yourself; but leave it to your discretion to show it to others. F. is a very sensitive soul; may-be he would not like it?
Love is the law, love under will.
Ever yours
Karl
