This Volume is one
of a Series
published by the Trustees of the
"E. J. W. GIBB MEMORIAL."
The Funds of this Memorial are derived from the Interest accruing from a sum of money given by the late MRS. GIBB of Glasgowe, to perpetuate the Memory of her beloved son
ELIAS JOHN WILKINSON GIBB,
and to promote those researches into the History, Literature, Philosophy and Religion of the Turks, Persians and Arabs, to which, from his Youth tipwards, until his premature and deeply lamented Death in his forty-fifth year, on December 5, 1901, his life was devoted.
تِلْكَ آثَارُنَا تَدُلُّ عَلَينَا • فَاَنْظُرُوا بَعْدَنَا إِلَى ٱلآثَارِ
“These are our works, these works our souls display;
Behold our works when the have passed away”.
