Aberigh-Mackay, George Robert, 1848-1881

"Twenty-One Days in India; and, the Teapot Series"


Mr. Sinnett, the leading actor in the affair described above, not long
after the publication of the Simla narrative, ended his connection
with _The Pioneer_, and may be regarded as one of the leading spirits
of the Theosophical movement, in connection with which he has written
many books, and he now holds high office in the London branch of the
Society.
