Dear David, I've never seen any accounts that report the Bab was killed by the first volley. However, if He had been there wouldn't be a second volley to report. I'm guessing that there might have been reports that only mentioned that the Bab was executed without mentioning what happened at the first volley. What I have seen are reports that Anis was killed with the first volley. Most of the Muslim accounts insist that the Bab was so shaken that He ran back to the barracks where they found Him and completed the execution. warmest, Susan The information contained in this e-mail and any attachments thereto ("e-mail") is sent by the Johnson County Community College ("JCCC") and is intended to be confidential and for the use of only the individual or entity named above.
