I think it was Hugh Urban or someone else who mentioned Agulei had become a Baha'i later in life. What is the truth of this because it does not appear anywhere else?
I have heard this too, but I am not sure where it comes form, and I have never seen any support for this.
I am eagerly looking forward to your book!
