Theosophical work in the United States
In 1936-1937, Caption Ransom lectured and worked in the United States:
Captain Sidney Ransom has been our guest lecturer from England since September. While visiting us for a period of only nine months, I am glad to state that he has consented and has been able to arrange other responsibilities to stay with us for another full year. From reports received at Headquarters and from the numerous requests for return engagements, it is clear that Captain Ransom's visits have filled a need wherever he has worked in the Section. We are glad that parts of the Section originally omitted from his itinerary can now be included, that all may share the inspiration and the helpfulness, both public and in the lodge, which Captain Ransom so freely gives and which has been so much appreciated.
Captain Ransom has consented and the Board have approved his appointment as acting National President, and that of Miss Ellen McConnell as acting National Secretary in the place of your National Officers during the six weeks that they will be absent from the Section attending the World Congress at Geneva.[1]
