Later He [‘Abdu’l-Baha] gave an account of Mírzá Yahyá and his followers and of the complaints they made to Edward G. Browne:
“They tampered with the contents of the history of Hájí Mírzá Jání by removing some of its passages and inserting others. They sent it to the libraries of London and Paris and through such falsehood induced him [Browne] to translate and publish the document. In order to achieve his own selfish desires, he had it printed.”
