Summary of Contents: در مقاله شخصی سیاح که در تفصیل قضیه باب نوشته است. Besides the full account of this MS. on pp. 663-665 of my Catalogue and
Description of 27 Bábí Manuscripts, its exact appearance can be judged from the
photo-lithographic facsimile forming vol. 1 of my Traveller's Narrative, written to
illustrate the Episode of the Bab, published by the Cambridge University Press int
1891, while the Introduction in vol. 11, containing the English translation, gives
full particulars concerning the work, of which, therefore, no further account need be
given here.
