{{Style S-Small capitals|The}} subjoined correspondence, with a few necessary words of explanation, is printed by the Theosophical Society for the information of such editors, in India and Ceylon, as may have unintentionally done it and its President the grave injustice of copying the recent libel of the ''Colonial Empire and Star of India'', without subsequent retraction after Col. Olcott’s unanswerable letter of protest and denial appeared in the ''Times of India''. The Society most cheerfully concedes the right of a free press to criticize it in every decent and legal way. It would be too much for it to imagine that its views upon religious and scientific matters would be acceptable to a majority of papers. But the Society’s officers will not permit any antagonist, even a missionary, to assail it with libellous diatribes. Fair play is all it asks or expects; and that, fortunately, the noble provisions of British law secure to all alike who live within its jurisdiction, and appeal to its Courts. | {{Style S-Small capitals|The}} subjoined correspondence, with a few necessary words of explanation, is printed by the Theosophical Society for the information of such editors, in India and Ceylon, as may have unintentionally done it and its President the grave injustice of copying the recent libel of the ''Colonial Empire and Star of India'', without subsequent retraction after Col.
