Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "The city of Beyrout was formerly called Berytus. It was named after Julia Augusta Felix Berytus, the daughter Emperor Augustus. It has about 120,000 inhabitants 38 Christian churches. The Christian element is growing stronger every year. Being the most important city on the Syrian coast of the Mediterranean, it is quite natural that it should become the center of missionary work."
