When in Bahá'í history

At one meeting, Ella was very taken with Ruth White. Seeing this, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá called Ella over and asked what her new friend saying, then strongly cautioned, saying, "Be very careful". Though Ella did not understand, she heeded the warning Ruth White later attacked the Faith and became a Covenant-Breaker.
