Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Monday, 14 November 1938

 

 

[I Ching Hexagram] 37.

     

Catesby arrived, laid down circle.

     

Dictated XIV & XV [for The Book of Thoth].

     

8.45 . . . . dinner.

     

Asked Peggy [Peggy Wetton] for E. Standard to find time of Wireless news. She went out, smelt burning, went to see, opened stove; fat caught fire. She removed pan with wet tea-cloth to throw it out, got burnt, screamed, called me. I put fire out. She badly burnt. I called doctor. She was utterly heroic & unselfish.
