Atkinson

According to Gresty's letter Atkinson is the leader of a group who 'serve the Goat' somewhere near Nug's Farm in the West Country.

This appears to be a pagan cult worshipping the fertility goddess Shub-Niggurath. Atkinson has tried to sleep with Hillary Quarrie, without success, Gresty refers to his 'itching loins'. He is an old man and Gresty seeks to supplant him.

Never encountered by the investigators, Atkinson summoned one of Shub-Niggurath's monstrous young to attack Nug's Farm and is assumed to have died along with Wilfred Gresty when Hillary Quarrie, with the aid of [[Bartlett] and Withers turned the thing back on it's summoners
