Vera Jelihovsky Johnston
in St. Petersbourg, 1894.

Vera Jelihovsky was the niece of H. P. Blavatsky and was married to Sanskrit scholar Charles Johnston. At the request of William Quan Judge, she translated her aunt's Russian-language letters to her family so that they could be published in The Path from December, 1894 to December, 1895.[1]

The Johnstons became members of the Theosophical Society in America, (later renamed Theosophical Society) headed by Ernest Temple Hargrove.
