It's also in my book Initiates of Theosophical Masters, and discussed
in terms of the relationships between Olcott and Besant and between
the TS and ES. The letter's perspective strikes me as that of Olcott
at the time and its warnings the kind of advice he was trying to give
Besant. If she wouldn't listen to the President of the TS when
warned not to let the ES run the show, then the Master KH needed to
weigh in. (Not to say HSO wrote the letter but "K.H."'s interests
and advice coincide with Olcott's at this time.)
