notes Bahá'í Faith: pp. 48, 96, 101-2, 108-9. "The day after my arrival [summer 1901] I spent nearly four hours with the head of the great Persian sect, who is really a prisoner at Acre, and who is recognized by Frenchmen, Russians, and Americans, notably by some American ladies of fortune, as an incarnation of God himself. I had the honor of dining with Abbas Effendi, and taking afternoon tea with him..." "In treating of the Babites, we have to deal with a sect which began in the year 1844....it is, in its aims, its ideals, and in the men and women that it has produced, by far the noblest sect born of Islam."
