[ T. Stirling Boyd, Chief Justice of Sarawak. ] Typed Letter Signed ('T. J. L. S. Boyd'), to Rev. W. Henderson Begg, expounding at great length his views on Theosophy, in response to Henderson-Begg's view that it is incompatible with Christianity.

5pp., 4to. In good condition, on aged paper, with rust stains from paperclip. He begins by stating that he was 'an interested listener of your lecture against Theosophy yesterday afternoon, and as you were kind enough to invite questions I venture to make one or two criticisms which occurred to me'. The main purpose of the recipient's lecture, it seems to Boyd, is 'to demonstrate that Theosophy is incompatible with Christianity'. He proceeds opposes this strenuously, with reference to reincarnation and Kant. He quotes at length from Kingsford and Maitland's 'Perfect Way', and ends (before apologising for the 'inordinate length' of the letter) with a discussion of 'the unique position of Christ'. An autograph note on the first page quotes from Annie Besant's 'Theosophy'.
