### Letter from Edith Maryon

Edith Maryon to Rudolf Steiner

Sculptor's studio, Goetheanum  
March 1, 1922

Dear and esteemed teacher!

Olga has just brought me this letter from Mrs. Mackenzie. I have read the letter; unfortunately it is over with eurythmy this time, but since it could not have been done properly, it is perhaps better to wait for Oxford; then we will be able to achieve something decent. I am a little sorry. No other news has come.

Today we got the Ahriman out and started the preparatory work for transferring the Lucifer – Geck, of course, resisted and first appealed to Sonderegger and then to Aisenpreis, but in vain, because what I ordered was the only right thing to do. She then complied!

Yesterday I was in Basel and today I'm going to the post office at 5 a.m. to pick up my boots from “Father”!

The studio looks terrible, the greatest disorder everywhere, and 4 workers inside. It will take a while.

I hope you are not too tired? The last few weeks have been really quite terrible.

If only you took a lot of vacation time in Berlin! Then you might have time to write an essay for the Hibbert? But only if there are quite a few free hours. Otherwise it would be a shame and no fun.

I hope the lectures in Halle and Leipzig went well and were well attended. I would also like to know that there is plenty of quiet time in Berlin; the leaders from day to day probably won't reappear as soon as their own day is over! Maybe they'll

they will even be buried.

With best wishes

Edith Maryon
