The writer was anxious to visit the Nestorian villages of the district and had arranged with the Patriarch that he should do so ; but found the scheme vetoed by the British Consul of Van, on the ground that " I have been speaking to the VaH on the matter, and he says that two Y 338 INTRUDERS IN A PANDEMONIUM companies of soldiers would not be enough to guard you there, " Under these circumstances he abandoned the journey ; but Rabban Werda, a deacon of the Nestorian Church, already mentioned in... these pages, then volunteered to go alone into the district and see what he could do for the people there. He volunteered with, of course, full knowledge of the fact that, though there would at all events be questions asked if the Enghsh- man got shot, nobody would trouble about such a trifle as the death of a mere rayat like himself. He went and he returned safely ; and in the course of his journey he visited a village called Shernakh, where he received hospitality as usual in the house of the Agha, but was surprised to find himself treated with more consideration than is the general lot of a Christian wanderer under the circumstances.
