Theos-Talk Archives (November 2008 Message tt00288)

It is my recollection, (someone else may be able to provide more specific
citation) that till the Society was incorporated, all the property of the
Society was in the name of Olcott. I think that considering his poor health,
it was decided to incorporate. I do not recall having seen any specific
mention about why the incorporation was done at that time.
