Besant's election, like the election of every international President 
of the Adyar TS, was by universal secret ballot. Olcott initially 
had "appointed" her as his successor and later corrected this by 
nominating her, which was his prerogative as President-Founder. As 
Josephine Ransom writes, "even though she was the only candidate, the 
nomination had to be ratified by a two-thirds majority vote of the 
whole international Society."

Was HPB under "dark" influences when she issued the following orders 
("H.P. Blavatsky Collected Works", vol. XII, pp.135-137)?
