The Hermetic Society was formed on May 9, 1884, as an offspring of the short-lived Hermetic Lodge of the Theosophical Society.

The first meeting took place at the residence of Mr. Francis Lloyd, 43 Rutland Gate, London W., with Dr. Kingsford as President, Mr. Maitland as Vice-President, and Mr. Lloyd as Treasurer.[1]

Col. Olcott, President-Founder of the Theosophical Society was present at this inaugural meeting and made a friendly address of good wishes and sympathy for the new society.
