Abstract
Benjamin Schneider letter to Justin Perkins in which Schneider writes about the events leading to the closure of the school Mrs. Schneider had commenced: the response of the Greek bishop, a letter from the Patriarchate, and two printed letters about the missionaries. He discusses orders from the bishop that all the books prepared and circulated by the missionaries be delivered up, the subsequent carrying out of these orders by priests, and efforts by the bishop to displace Schauffler from his house. He says these efforts were prevented by the Turkish authority, noting that he and the bishop are Christian and he was protected by a "Mussuluman" (Muslim) Turk. He writes of the mission's future prospects. Schauffler also remarks on his and Perkins' children.
