'Annan Messee, A Converted Hindoo'
Finest Hand-colored Lithographic Portrait of a Converted Hindoo
Annan Messee, A Converted Hindoo by Emily Eden
Emily Edan described the figure of Anand Masih as follows Anund Musseeh is a man of considerable notoriety and interest in the Upper Provinces of Bengal.
He is a native convert to Christianity, who was brought to renounce the Hindoo faith by the argument of a British clergyman at the station of Meerut. He now labours as a preacher among his countrymen, and is a man of remarkable suavity and prepossessing address of elocution. The word 'Musseeh' which he has adopted in his new name, is an Arabic one, identical with the 'Messiah' of our Bibles', tipped on card, deluxe edition, Published by J. Dickson & Son, London, 1844.
