According to Readers Guide to The Mahatma Letters to A. P. Sinnett:

Brown, William Tournay, a young Scotsman who had been educated as a lawyer. He joined the TS in London while APS was there and sailed for India in 1883. Apparently he was a man of nervous temperament but of considerable promise. HPB sent him to join HSO and DKM, who were on tour in North India (LBS, p. 62). In Lahore he was visited by KH (LBS, p. 68) During the absence of the Founders from Adyar, India, he served on the Board of Control appointed by HSO and was present at the time of the Hodgson investigation. He left India in 1885 and traveled most of the rest of his life, principally in the US and Europe. ML, p. 421; SH, pp. 184, 185, 192; D, p. 570; HPB VI:31, 32, 429; ODL 3: 23, 42; LMW 1: 28.
