I copy below from H.P. Blavatsky's 1888 "Pledge Folder", the
following part of the pledge of the E.S.T.S.:
"I pledge myself to preserve inviolable secrecy as regards . . . all
confidential documents."
See the full pledge of 1888 at:

And under the Rules of the section, in part 7, notice the wording
about maintaining:
"The Secrecy of the documents of the Section...."
"...unless absolved from such secrecy by the Head of the Section."
See complete set of rules at:
