Your joint and welcome message of October 18th written on the occasion of
our beloved sister Miss Martha Root's arrival in Bombay has duly reached
the Guardian and his heart is filled with gratitude to you for the very
warm and befitting welcome you have so kindly extended to that
well-beloved star-servant of the Cause. This is truly in keeping with the
tradition of warm hospitality for which our Indian believers have already
won such a high reputation. The cordiality you have shown this
distinguished international teacher on her previous visits to India could
have hardly been surpassed, and there is every reason to believe,
therefore, that on this trip, which will be probably the most extended one
she has ever been able to undertake throughout that continent, she will be
the object of the same devotion and love manifested towards her on
previous occasions.
[From the Guardian:]
May the Almighty bless you for the magnificent welcome accorded to such an
outstanding champion of the Cause, and may He enable you, in conjunction
with her, to lend a mighty impetus to the progress of the Faith and the
extension of its institutions.
