My Own O.T.O.A.
These are excerpts of letters from Michael Paul Bertiaux relating to my charters and the bishopric of the late W.W.Webb. The information therein is of a purely administrative nature and does not fall under privacy restrictions.I have omitted all passages and letters dealing with the teachings (e.g. on the XI°) and the history of the O.T.O.A. and the very detailed history of the Choronzon Club, La Couleuvre Noire, Memphis-Misraim, Fraternitas Rosicruciana Antiqua, the French Gnostics like Jean Bricaud, Jules Doinel, Robert Ambelain et. al. and related matter e.g. concerning Stefan Hoeller and other current gnostics and magicians.
Also omitted are Bertiaux' remarks about W.B. Crow's apostolic succession of Aleister Crowley, the 'Caliphate' (eg William Breeze's consecration by Jack B. Hogg jr.), Maggie Ingalls (Nema's Ma'at Aeon), and Kenneth Grant's Typhonian O.T.O..
Out of circa 50 letters only a handful are (sometimes partly) reproduced for research purposes.
The correspondence stopped in 1991 and never was to be resumed again.
My archive contains a large correspondence with Manuel Cabrera Lamparter, the archive of the O.T.O.A. of the countries which once comprised Yugoslavia, and several boxes of O.T.O.A. magazines and interna.
Of course, I am also familiar with current O.T.O.A. material.

Below papers are legally invalid because Bertiaux has stated in his Letter dated 1991-04-22 that my rights are "valid until he shall inform me of his intention to do otherwise". I never resigned. I never stepped back. I never intended to do so.
