NOT slightest intimation that they intended to appoint an hereditary

Ruth White. Abdul Baha's Questioned Will and Testament.
Beverly Hills: White, 1946.
"Neither [Abdu'l-Baha] nor Baha'u'llah had given the slightest intimation
that they intended to
appoint an hereditary guardianship. In fact everything that they had said
or spoken indicated the
opposite intention.
"I also did a great deal of recollecting of events that had happened
during our two visits to the
home of Abdu'l-Baha, where I had an opportunity to see him in relation to
his family and his
"in-laws." The deductions that I made confirmed what Abdul-Baha had so
often said--that the
spiritual relationship was the real kinship, and not the physical. For his
family, with the
exception of his wife and sister, were the average types with a strong
bent toward organized
religion, whereas Abdu'l-Baha was universal, "super-racial and
undogmatic." The world was his
family. His loving care for his universal family was evident throughout
his life, but at no time was
it more evident than during the first world war and directly after it. He
personally supervised vast
agricultural projects at Tiberias and Adassieh, and he rationed and
distributed the products that he
cultivated, thereby saving thousands from starvation" (28-29).
