Again Carl,
Thanks for clearing this subject up for me.  If he was good enough for HPB, I had better make it my new years resolution to read what he has to say.

Again thanks
Cass

 Let H.P. Blavatsky's own word on W.Q. Judge speak for them self:
 
 "Thanks for all, my dear old chum [W.Q.J.]; may the Masters protect 
 him. His ever and till and AFTER death."
 
 "My dear W.Q.J. . . . my only friend . . . Judge has done for me so 
 much lately, I owe him such gratitude, there is nothing I would do 
 for him . . . `Pon my word, I never knew I cared so much for him 
 personally. . . . I will never forget Judge's loyalty and devotion, 
 his unswerving friendship. . . ."
 " Judge . . . whom I trusted more perhaps than I did Olcott or 
 myself."
 
 "Master wants Judge to be elected for life, for reasons of His own – 
 that's God's truth, . . .Less than you would I want to see X ______ 
 or anyone (save Judge) elected for life . . . But if I do not like 
 the idea it is because I trust no one any longer, save Judge, and 
 Olcott perhaps. I have lost my last faith in mankind and see and 
 smell (rightly, if you please) Judases everywhere. But with Judge it 
 is different . . ."
 
 "I trust Judge more than anyone in the world."
 
 [To W.Q.Judge] "Well, sir and my only friend, the crisis is nearing. 
 I am ending my S.D. and you are going to replace me, or take my 
 place in America. . . . I rather lose the whole American lot to the 
 last man, X _______ included, than YOU."
 
 (The Irish Theosophist in June, 1895)
 
 London Oct. 23, 1889
 
 "The idea is absurd and preposterous . . . H.P.B. would give . . . 
 the whole esoteric bood in the U.S.A. for one W.Q.J. who is part of 
 herself since several aeons . . . .
 
 "He or she, who believes that under any circumstances whatever, 
 provocations, gossips, slander or anything devised by the enemy 
 H.P.B. will ever dream even of going against W. Q. J. -- does not 
 know H P B -- even if he or she does know H. P. Blavatsky, or thinks 
 he knows her.
 
 DIXI. H.P.B. &#61532;"
 "Take my place in America now & after I am gone — at Adyar."
 
   H.P.B. to W.Q.J. 
 (http://blavatskyarchives.com/hpbwqj81287.htm)
 
 "The Esoteric Section and its life in the U.S.A. depends on W.Q.J. 
 remaining its agent & what he is now. The day W.Q.J. resigns, H.P.B. 
 will be virtually dead for the Americans. W.Q.J. is the Antaskarana 
 between the two Manas (es), the American thought & the Indian – or 
 rather the trans-Himalayan Esoteric Knowledge. DIXI.
 
 P.S. W.Q.J. had show, & impress this on the minds of all those whom 
 it may concern"
         
   H.P.B.
 
 H.P.B.'s last words make it far clearer how enormously important 
 William Q. Judge was for the Movement:
 
 "KEEP THE LINK (the Antaskarana) UNBROKEN! DO NOT LET MY LAST 
 INCARNATION BE A FAILURE."

 Judge was the most important contributor after HPB?   For me it is 
 like comparing apples and oranges?
