This text is of great importance:
It is a grievous error to suppose that we seek to acquire Macedonia on behalf of Bulgaria. We Macedonians consider ourselves to be an entirely separate national element, and we are not in the least disposed to allow our country to be seized by Bulgaria, Servia, or Greece. We will, in fact, oppose any such incorporation with all our might. Macedonia must belong to the Macedonians. The misunderstanding has arisen through our residing in Bulgaria. The circumstance of our having prepared a Macedonian insurrection while living in this country led to the conclusion that we were aiming at a union between the two Slav provinces. That is, however, perfectly absurd. If we were to be expelled from Bulgaria and were to settle in Switzerland nobody would suppose that we intended to liberate Macedonia on behalf of Switzerland; we merely go where we find the most favourable opportunities for our revolutionary work.

Originally posted by Soldier of Macedon View PostDo you think he was responsible for some of those rumours, or was it the Bulgars or Turks?
It could be both, he had everything to gain if they thought he was dead, also the Turks and Bulgars had to gain from it because it demoralized the people.

Boris Sarafov's 'death' was announced several times, the above is a false reporting either by bad or deliberate information.
This below was posted earlier in the thread, and the part underlined in red probably sums up the scenario of the times, an excellent quote for reference.
