BRANCHE FRANCAISE, DE LA SOCIETE THEOSOPHIQUE. ''To the Editors of'' Lucifer. Allow me to bring to the notice of those of your readers who may have received the pretended “Bulletin de 1’Isis” the following facts: –


Of the three signatories of this bulletin one has been expelled from the Isis Lodge; the two others are not even members of the Theosophical Society.<ref name="v2-p365-n1">In the bulletin issued by the said gentlemen, it is questioned whether the President-Founder has the right to appoint officers pro tem. to vacant places. In the Rules of the T.S. may be found No. 7, which states: “The President-Founder has authority to designate any Fellow . . . . to perform pro tem. the duties of any office vacated by death or resignation.” In the Rules of 1888, Art. 15 (d) declares that “in case of vacancies occurring during the year it shall be competent for the President, &c., &c. . .to nominate and appoint persons to fill such vacancies.” M. Louis Dramard, the late President and Founder of “Isis,” being dead, and confusion and disputes having arisen in consequence, it was expedient to set this rule in action, and nominate, pro tem., in the name of the President-Founder, M. Gaboriau (a cofounder of the branch), as President “de l’Isis,” subject to the approval of the President in Council. Such nomination, even pro tem., was forced by the despotic and illegal actions of three persons, two of whom were not even members, and who had, nevertheless, seizing the power in their hands, proclaimed themselves as sole proprietors and directors of the destinies of l’Isis.</ref>
