Letter

My dear Whyte,

It was a kindly thought. Many thanks.

No, this is my swansong — a dying duck's quack in history.

The rest of my life will be spent in endeavouring to show the human race how blind & deaf they have been in not understanding the great new spiritual forces which have come in so strange a fashion into the world.

Yours sincerely
A Conan Doyle
