The French orientalist Monsieur Nicolas

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.
