We regret to announce that Madame Blavatsky is seriously ill and her life has been in great danger. Last winter she fell with great force upon one of her knees on the sidewalk, and the result was an inflamation of the ''periosteum'', or covering of the bone, which has progressed so far that it is now uncertain if the limb will mortify and be amputated, or become paralyzed. It would be a great loss to the cause of Spiritualism if this distinguished lady should die, for her devotion, learning, and enthusiasm are unsurpassed while in “spiritual gifts” she has scarcely an equal. | We regret to announce that Madame Blavatsky is seriously ill and her life has been in great danger.
