Even though Woodman's death was decided, contrary to Westcott's objections otherwise, Mathers insisted that they could still learn things from their victim despite being unable to see the spirit himself.

After Woodman's assassination, Mathers became the order's Imperator for five years. Following a conflict with Westcott, he expelled the order's remaining co-founder, thus gaining total control.

Here, he let [[Aleister Crowley]] become an adept of the inner order and also met one of the [[Templars\|Secret Chiefs]] who informed him that their partnership with the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn had ended ~~because of the loss of William Robert~~ Woodman.
