Dear martin:

I believe you could get a copy of that paper by Dr. Buck from the
Theosophical Society in Altadena/Pasadena.

>Chicago (April 1889)
>
>Anybody in this list has that paper? I would like to get a copy of it.
>HPB wrote something remarkable about him:
>
>"No living theosophist has better expressed and understood the real
>essence of Theosophy that our honour friend Dr. Buck."
>
>And that included Olcott, Judge, Besant and many others of the time.
>Her quote stArted with: "The Theosophical Society was orginized for the
>purpose of promulgating the Theosophical doctrines and for the promotion
>of the Theosophical life."
>
>I would like to know if in the rest (unquoted) paper, he expanded more
>about the ideas of "Theosophical doctrines and life."
