Letter to his Sister
Baroda Camp 25th August, 1894 My dear Saro,
I got your letter the day before yesterday. I have been trying hard to
write to you for the last three weeks, but have hitherto failed. Today I am
making a huge effort and hope to put the letter in the post before nightfall. As
I am now invigorated by three days' leave, I almost think I shall succeed. Page-420 or three hours.
No, the favours of the Gods are too awful
to be coveted.
I dare say he will have energy enough to hand over your letter
to Mano as they must be seeing
each other almost daily.
You must give Mano a little time before he
answers you. He too is Beno's brother. Please let me have Beno's address as I
don't know where to send a letter I have ready for him. Will you also let me
have the name of Bari's English Composition Book and its compiler? I want such a
book badly, as this will be useful for me not only in Bengalee but in Gujerati.
There are no convenient books like that here. ` Auro
