No. Actually the date might be considered even Sep.7, because then
...Madame Blavatsky's sprightly evening chatter and her reported
magical feats continued to draw groups of intelligent people to her
rooms. Among those thus attracted was Mr. George H. Felt, who had made
some careful studies in phases of Egyptology. He was asked to lecture
on these subjects and on the 7th of September, 1875, a score of people
had gathered in H.P.B.'s parlors to hear his address on "The Lost
Canon of Proportion of the Egyptians." Dr. Seth Pancoast, a most
erudite Kabbalist was present, and after the lecture he led the
discussion to the subject of the occult powers of the ancient
magicians. Mr. Felt said he had proven those powers and had with them
evoked elemental creatures and "hundreds of shadowy forms." As the
tense debate proceeded, acting on an impulse, Col. Olcott wrote on a
scrap of paper, which he passed over to Madame Blavatsky through the
hands of Mr. W. Q. Judge, the following: "Would it not be a good thing
to form a Society for this kind of study?" She read it and indicated
assent.

But the Meeting Minutes containing the proposal is dated Sep.8,1975 --
a hand-written page is reproduced in the book.
