George H. Felt was engineer and architect. On September 7, 1875, he gave a lecture at Mme. Blavatsky's rooms on the subject "The Lost Canon of Proportion of the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans." About 17 people were present. During the discussion that followed a suggestion was made that a Society be formed to pursue and promote such occult research.

The next day there was another meeting at H.P.B.'s place in which Mr. Felt lectured again. During this meeting the idea of a Society is more definitely developed, sixteen people handing in their names for that purpose. A committee of three is appointed to draft a Constitution and Bylaws
