O thou real friend! Another letter [hath just been]
received for thee. Its contents bear upon the cablegram
which was sent to prevent publication. By thy
dear life, thou wast not meant by it; for numerous
publications were seen in newspapers and magazines
which were not proper. The purpose of that cablegram
is this: That each one of the beloved ones of God
(believers in general who may wish to publish any
writings or articles, etc.) should first send the same to
the Holy Land, to be seen (or examined) and then
printed. And this matter is general and this (message)
was sent equally to America, Persia, India and Turkestan.
I have the utmost love for thee and thy family
for thou servest me -- how can I be offended at you?
Be assured and happy. Convey my greetings to thy
sons and also to the maid-servant of God, thy wife.
