Since then, I have come back for different events on many occasions. What moves me all the more is that I know this is the last time I shall preside over a World principles. Frequently in recent years, I Convention in San Jose as Imperator. If, in have thought about these records and years to come, an international Convention wondered what they contained, and also comes to be organized here again, and if whether they had come down through my age and my health permit it, I shall be the years in good condition.

From what we have found and been able to work out, there were some monographs on the basic Rosicrucian principles, and a Rosicrucian Digest from 1934.
