Letter of April 22nd, 1926. |
|
In the midst of the many vicissitudes which the creative Word
of God is destined to encounter in the course of its onward march
towards the redemption of the world, there breaks upon us the
news of still another loss, more bewildering in its character, yet
more inspiring in its challenge, than any of the gravest happenings
of recent times. Once again the woeful tale of unabated persecution,
104
involving this time the martyrdom of twelve of our long-suffering
brethren in Jahrum, southern Persia, has reached our ears,
and filled us with a gloom which all the joys and ennobling memories
of Riḍván have failed to dispel.
