Dear Christina–
Merry Christmas and happy New Year to you. I am going today to the country. I return in 10 days.
About the tour through Detroit–I will fix it later on. I am afraid if I go just now, everything here will fall to pieces.
I will come anyway, but I am afraid it will be later than I expected.
My love to Mrs. Phelps, Mrs. Phunkey [Funke] and all our friends and Christmas greetings.
Ever yours in the Lord,
Vivekananda
P.S. Kripananda sends his greetings too.
