Letter of 10 October 1940
Dear Mr. Hofman,
| |
| 1 |
I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of May 7th
addressed to our beloved Guardian, and of the enclosed memoir
of Lady Blomfield which you have condensed at his request for
use in the "Bahá'í World", Vol. VIII.
| |
| 2 |
The size of the memoir in question makes it now quite suitable
for reproduction in the Biennial, and it will be forwarded to the
U.S.A. for incorporation in the manuscript, as the latter has been
already mailed to America for printing.

The material regarding the Bahá'í wedding recently held in
London has been also received and noted with interest and
appreciation by our beloved Guardian. He is keeping it for
possible use in the forthcoming or future editions of the "Bahá'í
World".
| |

Renewing to you and your dear co-workers the assurances of
his prayers, and of his deep gratitude for your painstaking and
devoted exertions in service to the Cause in England, and with
greetings....

[From the Guardian:]
Dear and valued co-worker,
| |

Our anxiety for the safety of the English believers is deepening
every day, as it is fully realised how dangerous the situation has
become in recent months, and how manifold and pressing are the
problems that confront them in the faithful discharge of their sacred
and vital responsibilities. The perusal of the reports, minutes and
periodicals received lately from that country has served to deepen my
sense of admiration and my feelings of gratitude for the wisdom, the
staunchness and fidelity with which the elected representatives of the
English believers are conducting in these critical times the activities of
their Faith. My fervent and constant prayer is that Bahá'u'lláh may
ever keep them safe and protected under the shadow of His wings and
aid them to play a worthy and memorable part in these tragic days of
the Formative Period of our beloved Cause.
