This servant of God and of AbdulBaha passed peacefully into the Kingdom of the Supreme One, Dec. 5, 1919, at Cairo, Egypt, after a brief illness. Born in Persia, an early follower of BAHA’o’LLA1-1, to whom his whole life was devoted in loyal service. In his younger days he traveled quite extensively. His great love and devotion to the Center of the Covenant made him a joyful servant in this Glorious Cause. Though he lived to be a very old man, so old that no one knew his exact age, yet he kept strong and vigorous in body. This state of health, with his wonderful faith and love for the Bahai Movement and its followers, kept him young in spirit, always cheerful and smiling, that it was ever a great pleasure for the friends to meet him, and the younger Bahais were much attracted to him. He had lived in Cairo many years, and always he Was in his accustomed place at the Weekly Bahai Assembly. It was ever such a joy for me to meet him there, with his kindly grasp of the hand, and cheery Words of welcome. He had seen all of the American believers who had ever been to Cairo, and he always remembered them all most aifeetionately, frequently inquiring of me of the different ones by name Whom he had seen, and wishing me to send them his loving greetings Whenever I wrote. You will all remember him who have seen him, as he was the oldest Bahai here, With a long White beard, and Wearing a white turban, so that he approached in appearance the nearest of anyone to AbdulBaha. We all shall greatly miss him. But we have loving memories of him, still feel his spiritual presence here with us, and rejoice with him upon his joyful entrance into the glorious Kingdom of God. Elinor Hiscozc. ABDUL-HOSSEIN DJ AFFAROFF We have lost one of our friends in Vladivostock, Russia. Abdul-Hossein the eldest son of Mirza Mehdy Reshty of Ishkabad, died J anuary 23, 1920.
