Our duties are 1. to assist the purposes of the Diety in evolving our and others mental powers." Very interesting and certainly worthy of further research.

Though unsigned it is evident from the addtional photocopied material this is indeed from Levi. Fragile but still very presentable. Very rare. . Autograph. Manuscript. Fair. 64mo - up to 3" tall.
