Excerpt from The Romance of Missions: Inside Views of Life and Labor, Land of Ararat

When the proposition to prepare these narratives for the press was first made, an almost insurmountable obstacle pre sented itself in the fear that such publicity, if known to our Armenian converts, might seriously mar the simplicity of their Christian character. This evil I have endeavored to obviate by changing the names of persons now living, whose history is briefly sketched in these pages. And I may add, that the pictures are not intentionally embellished; it has been my aim to adhere, faithfully, to the original in each portraiture, giving the very words employed by individuals, and truthfully stating both sides, so far as known.
