Is this a forged Blavatsky letter and should it have been excluded from Vol I?

Is this a forged Blavatsky letter and should 
it have been excluded from Vol I of H.P.B.'s
COLLECTED LETTERS? 

In an 1877 letter to her aunt, Madame Blavatsky 
wrote:

"Sahib [Master Morya] has been known to me for 
more than twenty-five years; he came to London....
Since then I have not seen him, until I received 
a letter from him...three years ago..."

[See Letters of H.P. Blavatsky, Vol. I, starting at
the bottom of p. 352 and continuing on p. 353.]

This statement by Blavatsky seems to CONTRADICT
what Blavatsky writes elsewhere about her relationship
and encounters with the Master Morya.

Therefore due to this contradiction, is this 1877 
letter a "forgery" and should it have ALSO been excluded 
from Volume I of HPB's Collected Letters with the 
other "questionable" letters mentioned by 3 readers 
and the editor in a recent issue of FOHAT????
