Gala Time in Constantinople Turndays Ramazan Festivities
A letter from Mr. Alfred E. Brady in Constantinople describes Ramazan celebrations with the Sultan at Seraglio Palace, crowded mosques, and the Night of Worship in St Sophia. He notes Turkish customs, prayers, foot washing, and the Pigeon Mosque, plus the Cistern of 1001 Columns and the Burnt Column. He reports on charity needs, a missing shipment, and refugees in need while urging readers to donate clothing to the Near East.
