Morris Cohen, of Bagdad, furnished a full copy of the inscriptions in the Mausoleum, but they possess no historical value. The reputed Prayer of Esther seen there by former travellers is no longer extant. Guy Le Strange's book, The Lands of the Eastern Caliphate.
"Now I behold a stranger at the same water-hole. He's alone he's looking for something. He rides in circles. He's off his horse and bending over What? A skeleton! Yes, it's the skeleton of one of them other Mexicans." Strange's voice became positively sepulchral as his spirit control took fuller possession of his earthly shell and as his visions resolved themselves into clearer outline. "See!
In the slightly strained pause that followed, Juliet bent to fondle Columbus who was sitting pressed against her and her book slid from her lap to the ground. Green stooped swiftly and picked it up. "What is it? May I look?" She held out her hand for it. "It is Marionettes, Dene Strange's latest. Mrs. Fielding lent it to me." He kept the book in his hand.
I was two months in captivity; and eight days afterwards we heard of Major-General Strange's arrival, I managed to escape.
