Sealing the Mouth of Outrage Notes on the Meaning and Intent of Hartʼs These from the land of SinimI am indebted to a very old friend, the Rt Revd George Hacker, for his initial comments on my attempts to determine the whereabouts of ‘Sinim’ and to his thoughts relative to Christians finding a personal context in a Biblical reading. I am also indebted to the Revd Mark Everitt for the Smith reference and to Darlene Logan for the essential Jewish citations. I have made certain assumptions relative to Sir Robert Hart based on my research prior to writing his biography for the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (2004) and on Hartʼs own collected correspondence in Confidential Correspondence between Robert Hart and James Duncan Campbell, 1874–1907, Chen Xiafei and Han Rongfang, chief eds (Beijing: Foreign Languages Press, 1993). See especially Volume III and the Index in Volume IV.
