The other Bulgarian missionaries faced prior misconduct charges, and the board ordered cessation or resignation of propaganda activities. The Persia missionaries, under the Presbyterian Board, allegedly interfered in local affairs between Persians and Assyrians in the northwest. Dr. James L. Barton reviewed the Bulgarian case and led to one missionary stopping propaganda and the other leaving the service.
