Ch.XXIV, p.529, f.1
"Now in these years [A.H. 1266 and 1267] throughout all Persia fire fell
on the households of the Babi's, and each one of them, in whatever hamlet
he might be, was, on the slightest suspicion arising, put to the sword.
More than four thousand souls were slain, and a great multitude of women
and children, left without protector or helper, distracted and confounded,
were trodden down and destroyed." ("A Traveller's Narrative," pp. 47-8.)
