The 1st of May 1895.

DEAR MOTHER,

Many, many thanks for sending the coat. Now I am well equipped for summer. I am so sorry the rugs could not come before I leave this country. They will come if Dewanji is alive.

I have been out of town a few days and have now come back all right—healthy as ever.

Lord bless you ever and ever for your untiring kindness to me.

Ever your grateful Son,
VIVEKANANDA.

P.S. The History of Rajasthan [1] I present you, and the satchel to the babies.
