In reply, I most emphatically state that I am entirely ignorant of the origin or career of the above named “Esoteric Theosophical Society” of which Dr. Coues is said to be the “perpetual President,” and that this gentleman is in no way connected with the Esoteric Section of the T.S. of which I am the sole Head; nor can I help thinking that the said ''Esoteric'' “Theosophical Society” is a ''printer’s mistake''. The only Esoteric Society which has any LEGAL right to the name “Theosophical” is that which Col. Olcott founded and chartered in London in October, 1888, for the proof of which see ''Lucifer'' of that month.
