{{HPB-CW-comment|[The following two items. entitled “Heroic Women” and “A Card from the Countess Blavatsky,” appear as cuttings from a newspaper in H.P.B.’s {{SB-page|v=1|p=17|text=Scrapbook, Vol. I, p. 17}}. The name and date of the newspaper do not appear in print, but H.P.B. wrote in ink above the first cutting:}} “From the N. Y. Mercury, Jan. 18, 1875.” | |||
{{HPB-CW-comment|It is probable that these two items appeared one week apart from each other, but the actual dates have remained somewhat {{Page aside|54}} uncertain, as the files of both the New York Mercury and Sunday Mercury have not been located, and therefore could not be verified.}} | |||
{{HPB-CW-comment|Words that are underlined have been underscored by H.P.B. herself in her Scrapbook. Her various comments at the side of the cuttings appear as footnotes.]}} | |||

It is not often that two heroines appear at the same time before the public, yet Helen P. Blavatsky and Clementine Gerebko have entered the legal arena in order to have a slight business misunderstanding settled by Judge Pratt of the Supreme Court, Brooklyn. Both of these ladies possess a romantic and remarkable record. | It is not often that two heroines appear at the same time before the public, yet Helen P.
