Gibbon claims that the headquarters were moved in 1888 to a room on Charlemont Mall. The Society moved again in 1890, this time to a vacant house in Lower Leeson Street, No. 95. The house was entered in the Dublin Directory of that year under the names of 'Madame Hohenstein Butler, Prof, of German and other foreign languages' and also under 'The Theosophical Society, Dublin Lodge. Mr. Weekes', probably referring to Charles Weekes. The next year, 1889, the Dublin Directory records that the house at No. 95 Lower Leeson Street was again vacant. See
