RIDGELY MANOR,
30th October 1899.
MY DEAR CHRISTINA,
Did you not get my last letter? I am very anxious to know how you are. Write a line to tell me you are in very good health.
I am afraid the previous one was misdirected, so I send this c/o Mrs. Funkey [Funke].
Do write soon. I am thinking of Battle Creek food [1] . Baby insists on that. Do you think it will do me any good? Write soon.
ⓘ[1] Battle Creek is a city in central Michigan, United States, famous for its Health Centre, which was known since 1876 as Battle Creek Sanatorium. Under the direction of John Harvey Kellogg (1876–1943), the Sanatorium experimented with health foods, which became the main industry of the city.
Ever yours in the Lord,
VIVEKANANDA.
PS—Where is this Battle Creek? Is it near Detroit? I am seriously thinking of giving it a trial. I am not bad, but unfit for any exertion, even for a walk. This sort of life is no good to live. I [will] try Battle Creek, and if that fails, get out quick.

Write me about Battle Creek.
