Succeeds: The Spiritual Pioneer
1/1, July 16, 1880. Incorporated Lambelle's
monthly Spiritual Pioneer. The journal regularly
had articles by William Oxley, including, in the
issue for November 5, 1880, "Occultism and
Adeptship" on H.P. Blavatsky's mysterious
uncovering of a needed cup and saucer under a
deodhar tree on a "pic-nic." The journal was in
financial difficulties from the first. The
Psychological Review in March 1882 noted that the
spiritualists' convention organized to support
the journal exclusively ended "under a dense
cloud of uncertainty and humiliation." Spanish
