Tith. s international scandal which
leveloped from the Damascus at-
air began on Feb. 5, 1S40, when a
'atpuchin monk, Father Tomas,'
Thomas) of Sardinia, disap-
peared, together with his servant.
Forams° practiced medicine among
Christians, Mohammedans and
Jews. Rumor at the time of his
disappearance had it that he had
quarreled with a Turkish mule-
dri v er and that the latter had
sworn: "This Christian dog shall
die by no other hand than mine."
But innocent testimony given by
some Jews that Tomas° and his
servant had been seen on the eve
of his disappearance in the Jewish
quarter immediately directed cleri-
cal attention on the Jews. Under
the leadership of a Jew-baiting
fanatic, Father Tusti, the monks
grabbed at the suspicion aroused
against the Jews, aiming, accord-
ing to the historian, Prof. Heinrich
Greets, to accomplish the follow-
ing ends: "They could :satiate their
hatred against the Jews, suppress
an inquiry as to whether Father
F
Tomato had indeed quarreled with
Muesulmane and reviled them, and
finally a new martyr, slain by the
JeWn, would he added to their list
of saints, which was always n
source of profit."
The Villain in the Plot.
The clericals found a villain to
help them in their machinations.
France, then the most influential
European power, was looked upon
as the protector of Roman Cath-
olic^. in the East, and Ratti Men-
ton, the French consul in Damas-
cus, who was besieged by the
monks to press the charge against
the Jews, hastened to prosecute
them with the aim in view of M
strengthening French power in the
East in his dealings with local
authorities. Other clues in the dis-
appearance of Tomasn, among
them the news that the Turkish
merchant who was preser.t at the
Christian monk's quarrel with the
mule-driver had
