The Forgery on HPB Being a Spy
Feb 17, 2006 03:52 AM

Dear Friends,
The false Russian Spy" letter I am talking about has likely been forged by
Mr. Alexis Coulomb, who was good at imitating HPB's handwriting for fun,
when he was already infiltrated in the movement, as a preparation and
rehearsal -- before he did it seriously (see HPB's words in Jean Overton
Fuller's Biography of the founder of the esoteric moverment).
This false "Letter" is said by John Algeo to be in the Central State
Archive of the October Revolution, MS 109.3.22, yet he published just a
translation made from some transcription of it.
HPB has commented on this false document herself in very clear terms, but
J. Algeo did not pay attention to her. He -- a close ally to Daniel Caldwell
-- only gave credit to her libellers. Et pour cause. (He must have his
reasons.)
Best regards, Carlos.

Dear Dallas,
The Russian Museum in Peterburg is the third big collection of fine
arts and is distinct from Hermitage. Russian Museum contains mainly
paintings while Hermitage - miscellaneuos objects of arts because it
is former emperor's palace.

Besides two main literary archives which I have mentioned in the
previous letter on the subject, there is also department of written
sources in State Historical Museum.

>> Russian State Archive of Literary Sources and Russian State Library
