Nearly all the helpers of the Harpoot, Diarbekir, and Mardin fields were there, with twenty delegates from churches and from congregations that expected soon to have churches.
There were also present the members of the Theological school, Mr.Livingston from Sivas, and Mr.Williams from Mardin, who had brought his students to spend the summer in the school at Harpoot. On the 15th of November, 1866, Mrs.Adams died at Aintab, of consumption, much lamented.[1] Mr.Richardson, on his return from America, joined the Broosa station.
