Theos-Talk Archives (November 2006 Message tt01372)

Carlos,

If Judge trusted so much in Crosbie as you and ULT believe, tell us 
then way Judge didn't gave Crosbie any more authorities in the EST 
of New England then to administrate the outgoing correspondence, eg. 
to put letters in envelops, lick on the paste, put a stamp on and 
post it? 
The later Mrs. A. Conger worked together with Crosbie in Boston 
during these years, and stated this later very clear.

have trust-relationships with other theosophists as well. Judge  did 
have other trust-relationships, of course. So please don't use those 
words to suggest that according to the ULT Mr. Judge only had trust 
in Robert Crosbie, and in no one else. I hope you can understand 
this.
