57. This week will be the last of my classes
NEW YORK,
The 28th May ‘95.
DEAR MOTHER,
Your last kind letter to hand. This week will be the last of my classes. I am going next Tuesday with Mr. Leggett to Maine. He has a fine lake and a forest there. I will be two or three weeks there. [1] Thence I go to the Thousand Islands. Also I have an invitation to speak at a parliament of religions at Toronto, Canada, on July 18th. I will go there from Thousand Islands and return back.
ⓘ[1] On June 4, 1895, Mr. Leggett and his party of five—including Swami Vivekananda—took a train from Portland, Maine, to Mr. Leggett’s cabin in Percy, New Hampshire.
So far everything is going on well with me.
Ever your grateful son,
VIVEKANANDA.
P.S. My regards and love to your daughter and pray for her speedy recovery.
V.
