Olcott: “The miracle is not in that you converted the Editor of ''The Pioneer'' to Theosophy . . . But it would be a ''miracle'' indeed, were you to convert ''The Pioneer'' itself to speak against an Englishman and in defence of a ''native''.” Below this, with a hand pointing to it, H.P.B. has written in pen and ink:]}} | |||
Effect of Theosophy, and our answer. The “miracle” accomplished. | |||
