Correspondence from Kenneth Grant to Cecil Williamson
11a Fawley Rd., London. N.W.6.
Sol in Scorpio 24th. Oct. '51 e.v.
Dear Cecil:
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
I hear from Gerald Yorke that you have had copies of the Manifesto made. So much misunderstanding seems to have gone on between each one of us that it seems as if we shall never sort it all out. Bluntly, then, if you will let me have the copies of the Manifesto in payment (as it were) for what my wife did for the exhibition, we shall all be pleased. But what is most important (and I think I mentioned this in an earlier letter) is that you send me the O.T.O. dye together with the printed matter.
A few days ago I received a letter from a person in Singapore to whom you had given my name. Apparently he wishes to “harm” somebody or other, whom he thinks responsible for upsetting his mother and sister. This sort of person is, of course, the type at which the Manifesto is not aimed. But I expect you had shoals of similar rubbish. It all seems to be a matter of the right presentation, and I am hoping the Manifesto will serve this end. Anyway, we can but try.
Hope you and your wife and family are keeping fit and not overstraining the old nerves. I take it you’ve had a hard time.
But above all, I hope that the subtle rancour that has lurked between the respective lines of our last letters will fade into the murky obscurity of the sea of misunderstanding from which it originally arose to take such horrible form.
I should be more than pleased if you could let me have the Manifesto as soon as you possibly can as John Symonds' book on A.C. is due out almost any time now, and I will need the printed matter for enclosures to persons writing for information.
Love is the law, love under will.
Aossic
