Haifa, Israel,
April 30, 1952
Mrs. D. E. Dive, Treasurer,
National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of Australia and New Zealand.
Dear Baha'i Friends:
Your gracious letter of April 3rd has come to hand, and the Guardian has
asked me to acknowledge it on his behalf. Enclosed is receipt for the
contribution which has been made to the Shrine of the Bab.
The unity of the friends in Australia and New Zealand is greatly valued by
the Guardian; and he appreciates the sacrifices which have been made in
sending these contributions to this Holy Undertaking on Mt. Carmel.
The Shrine is increasing in beauty from day to day. The marble work on the
octagon has been completed; the exquisite pinnacles have been put in
place; and work is under way on the extension of some of the Gardens. The
Guardian is hopeful the work may continue uninterruptedly, so as to be
completed next year.
With loving Baha'i greetings, I am
Leroy Ioas,
Assistant Secretary.
