An English journalist; born in London, 1840. He was on the staff of the London Globe in 1859; afterwards edited the Daily Press at Hong Kong. In 1871 he was editor of the Pioneer, at Allahabad, India. Returning to England in 1882, he published "The Occult World" and "Esoteric Buddhism" (1883), which immediately connected his name with the Theosophical movement, and with its originator Madame Blavatsky.
