This book is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS series. The creators of
this series are united by passion for literature and driven by the
intention of making all public domain books available in printed
format again - worldwide. At tredition we believe that a great book
never goes out of style. Several mostly non-profit literature
projects provide content to tredition. To support their good work,
tredition donates a portion of the proceeds from each sold copy. As
a reader of a TREDITION CLASSICS book, you support our mission to
save many of the amazing works of world literature from oblivion.
When speaking of Theodore's treatment of foreigners, I will
endeavour to explain the real cause of the misfortunes that befell
Mr. Stern. That he was only the victim of circumstances, is a fact
beyond any doubt. The extracts from his book and the notes from his
diary, brought as charges against him, were only discovered several
weeks after many cruelties had been inflicted upon him. But I
believe that many small, apparently trifling, incidents combined to
make him the first European victim of the Abyssinian monarch. The
Emperor could not endure the thought that Europeans in his country
should do aught else but work for him.
