hile the sky of Persia was covered with heavy clouds of ignorance and
even the dim ray of light in Assyria was almost quenched, suddenly
God, in His great wisdom and wise providence, awakened the consciences
of godly men in America to think about mission work in Persia. In the year
of 1832 Messrs. Smith and Dwight were sent by the A.B.C.F.M. to exam-
ine the degenerate and antique churches of the East. They traveled through
Syria, Asia Minor, Armenia and Persia. In the latter country they remained
in the city of Oroomiah for several weeks, and met the bishops and leaders
of the Assyrian church with whom they visited the villages of Assyria. Men,
women and children everywhere greeted them with great joy. In this way
they became acquainted with the needs of the nations. Mr. Smith said at
that time: "I see that this field is white and ready for the harvest. In all my
journey I have seen no people as willing to accept the gospel as are the As-
syrians of Persia. It is a good field for the work."
On their return to America Messrs. Smith and Dwight reported the needs
of the Assyrians and their readiness to accept the gospel. But the question
3 MOOSHIE G. DANIEL
arose, Where is the man qualified for the work, who can overcome the diffi-
culties? In the beginning of every great work there must always be a unique
man to lead it. God found only Moses among all the Israelites as being com-
petent to bring His people out of Egypt. He elected George Washington to
make free America. Even so, in His providence, he found the Rev. Justin
Perkins to be the man equipped for this great mission work. In 1835, Justin
Perkins and Dr. Grant as his medical assistant were appointed to the work
in Persia. These two blessed messengers of Emanuel shone in the dark skies
of Persia, and I believe will everlastingly shine in the sky of heaven.
They were received by the natives as if God had sent them from heaven.
Many Assyrians went out to meet them with tears of joy in their eyes. Per-
haps some one will ask why the Assyrians were so eager to receive the mis-
sionaries. Were they awakened to their spiritual condition? The answer is,
they were not fully awakened to their great need of spirituality, but they
were eager to be saved from the wicked plan of the Mohammedans to con-
vert them to that faith by force, if need be.
CHAPTER II.
METHOD OF WORK.
M
r. Perkins gained the confidence and won the love of the people by mak-
ing himself one of their number, by adopting their customs and speak-
ing of Assyria as "our nation." In this way he got very close to the people,
they believed him their friend, and were not afraid to come near to him. In
adopting the native dress it must be remembered of him that he wore the
hat commonly worn by aged religious men. It was made of sheep-skin and
was not less than two feet high.
TheAssyrians churcheswere open to the new missionaries and they preached
two or three times every Sunday. There was marked interest in the new
teachers from the beginning, and every service was attended by 200 or 300
natives. In addition to the observance of Sunday the Assyrians have nu-
merous sacred or saint's days; at such times the churches are better attended
than on Sundays. Services were also lead by the missionaries on these days.
Through every day of the week the missionaries were busy scattering the

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
