Chapter 11 – A Literal Prophecy
Note. — Since the foregoing was written, the

situation in Turkey has grown continually

worse. Armenian massacres have continued,

and between January and September, 1896,

rebellion against the Turk broke out in Crete

and Macedonia. Besides this, fanatical

Moslems themselves show signs of

dissatisfaction with the sultan, and threaten

revolution. Serious disturbance has just taken

place (September, 1896) in Constantinople,

resulting in the slaughter of some two

thousand Armenians. The crown-heads of

Europe are now in consultation in regard to

the disposition of the affairs of Turkey, with

the prospect that some determination will be

reached, and thus the only obstacle in the way

of the dissolution of the Turkish empire be

removed.
