DURING `Abdu'l-Bahá's stay in
Cadogan Gardens people arrived all
day and every day, from early morning
to nightfall, hoping for the privilege of
seeing him and of hearing him talk. Many were
the gatherings round the board of that hospitable
house and hundreds of people were made
welcome. Many came without introduction and
no one was refused. Among them were clergy of
various denominations, members of Parliament,
magistrates, and literary men.

The visitors were not only English; numerous
Persians had journeyed from Tihrán and other
Eastern cities to meet freely one who had so long
been withheld from them by his captivity.

The editor of a journal printed in Japan,
altered his return route to Tokyo in order that he
might spend the night near `Abdu'l-Bahá, and a
late visit was paid by a Zoroastrian physician of
Bombay, on the eve of his return to India.
