4th June ‘95.

DEAR MOTHER,

Today I leave New York at 5 p.m. by steamer with Mr. Leggett.

The classes were closed on Saturday last [June 1] and so far the work has been very successful, no small part of which is due to you.

Ever praying for you and yours,

I am ever your faithful Son,
VIVEKANANDA.

P.S. I will acquaint you with my whereabouts as soon as I know it myself.
