Timeline
[edit | edit source]1932 (?), when Israel Regardie published his book on the Golden Dawn, "many initiates felt that their ceremonial power was lost thereby, and some members, such as Maiya Tranchell-Hayes, simply gave up the Ghost and buried their robes in despair" (Trobe 18).
1966, it was Maiya Tranchell-Hayes' robes that washed ashore, having fallen from their hiding place on a cliff in England.
Questions and Notes
[edit | edit source]- Too late? Knew Moina Mathers, but after MacGregor Mathers died and Moina returned to London. Annie Horniman was a member of this group as well?
