"The Mission to the Assyrian Christians of Kurdistan", The Graphic, 1882
Nine wood engravings: the patriarch's church and village at Kochanes (Qudshanis), Patriarch Mar Shimun (captioned "Mar Shimoor"), the Archdeacon of Tyari, the patriarch's father Benjamin and half-brother Isa, his uncle Nathan, a Persian Nestorian priest with ladies, and a meeting at Lambeth Palace. The accompanying article says the engravings were taken from Rev. E. L. Cutts's book "Christians under the Crescent in Asia".
