Letter of 6 January 1924
Dear Bahá'í Brother,
| |
| 1 |
Your letter of Dec. 23rd furnishing necessary information
concerning the Conference on Religions arrived and made our
dear Guardian highly pleased and delighted.
| |
| 2 |
As he has quite recently written to the friends in England, he
has instructed me to answer your letter and inform you that he
has written and directed the National Spiritual Assembly of
America to have a comprehensive article written by the ablest
pen among the American friends--to be excellent both in style
and in representation.

After this essay is written, it will be sent to our dear Shoghi
Effendi who will send it to your N.S. Assembly for your perusal
and consideration. You will add your remarks and suggestions
and return it to him for final approval.

Shoghi Effendi is also thinking of selecting someone among
the Indian friends to represent India. This Conference and a
worthy and dignified representation of the Holy Cause therein,
are under his serious consideration. We hope that through his
wise instruction and powerful prayers your activities in this
respect will be crowned with glorious success and that it will be
known to the public that the Cause is not a movement collateral
with other movements such as the Brahma Somaj or Ahmadí
movements.

Here at the Holy Shrine of our Beloved we remember all the
dear friends in England and supplicate humbly for their
happiness.
| |

Shoghi Effendi is sending you his love and affection together
with his deep appreciation towards your noble labours and
sacrificial efforts in the service of the Holy Cause...

[From the Guardian:]
My dear friend,
| |
| 8 |
I enclose a copy of my recent letter to the National Spiritual
Assembly of America regarding the Conference as well as copies of my
recent translation of some of the most remarkable and prophetic
utterances of Bahá'u'lláh and `Abdu'l-Bahá which might interest the
friends in Great Britain. Pray convey my love to all of them.
