| Abstract | Justin Perkins letter to T.P. Johnston in which Perkins says that they hope their friends who are to join them (at the Nestorian Mission) will soon be with Johnston. He writes about his past suggestion that these friends secure Mr. Haas' servants on their return from Trebizond, saying that Haas is detained and so he would now advise that they not wait on him at Trebizond. He notes that Haas is detained because Persians owe him money and provides further suggestions for the friends' travels. Perkins gives brief updates on his circle, notes that they are expecting a visit from Dr. Riach, and writes about his hopes for Johnston's labors and their own. |
