The Guardian told us about Monsieur Nicolas, the French
orientalist, who greatly admired the Bab but imagined that the Baha'is
undervalued His station. Hearing that Monsieur Nicolas was very disturbed about
this, the Guardian sent him a copy of" The Dawn-Breakers." Monsieur
Nicolas expressed his gratitude and his admiration of the book.
