The good man said he did not recognise any kind of authority over his community, that he was not called to obey his Superior as a matter of course, and that he could stay on in Bagdad if he wanted to...” The matter was resolved when the Pasha of Mosul invited the turbulent priest to practise medecine there. Concerning the war he writes “The unrest which has afflicted the Ottoman Empire, and which indeed continues to do so, has not reached us. The city of Bagdad is still enjoying peace and prosperity. There is a war against Persia, but this is going on in the frontier regions some 50 leagues away from us. Until now the Turks have had the advantage.” On spiritual matters he reports that the Turks “steal some Christian souls who were so poor that they were forced to abjure their faith in order to eat, and this is a great source of sorrow to me. As I have hardly enough for my self, I am in no position to help them or save them from such an appalling fate.” It is interesting to note that the Ottomans tolerated a Christian Community in their midst 1034.PINNEY (Roy) Vanishing Tribes, numerous plates, dw, 1968 [10890] £25 The author details 33 fast disappearing tribes, from the Ainu of Japan, and the Navaho, to the Watusi and the Jivaros.
