`Abdu'l-Bahá returned to San Francisco. Mrs Hearst asked Him if she could accompany Him. [AB308; 239 Days; MD330]
  • "Alas, even the benefits of this heavenly visit were tarnished by the actions of one member of 'Abdu'l-Bahá's entourage...there was one spoiler, the nephew of 'Abdu'l-Bahá's wife, Dr Ameen Fareed....Fareed would never have been allowed on Phoebe's property had he not been accompanying the Master because she had had difficulties with him and his father years before. Fareed took advantage of the Master's visit to the Hacienda to forge a letter, purportedly from 'Abdu'l-Bahá Himself, asking her for funds. Phoebe was all too familiar with people trying to get her money and did not take the bait. It further confirmed that her wariness in associating with many in the Bahá'í community was justified." [LWS261]
