Sinopsis

Excerpt from Notes From the Journal of F. M. Flad, One of Bishop Gobat's Pilgrim Missionaries in Abyssinia: Edited, With a Brief Sketch of the Abyssinian Church

A brief sketch of a portion of that history found in the following pages.

AT the commencement of the fourth century, Mero pius, a merchant, or, as some say, a philosopher of Tyre, touching on the western coast of the Red Sea, as he was journeying to India, was murdered by the bar barous natives, who, however, spared the lives of two youths, his companions, Adesius and Frumentius, and carried them to the court of the Emperor of Abyssinia. Their talents soon brought them into notice. The latter received employment as a secretary, the former was employed in the buttery.
