National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of Australia.
Dear Baha'i Friends:
Under separate cover, at the instruction of our beloved Guardian, I am
mailing to you a fragment of the plaster from the Room the Bab was
confined in, in the Fortress of Mah-Ku, in Persia.
He is sending this precious memento to be placed by Mother Dunn on his
behalf in the foundations of the First Ma_sh_riqu'l-A_dh_kar which you
will shortly commence building in Sydney.
He feels sure that this precious dust, calling to mind the sacrifices of
the beloved Bab, will be a blessing for the Temple and an inspiration to
the friends.
Please acquaint Mother Dunn with his instructions, and see that she
receives the plaster safely.
With warm Baha'i greetings,
R. Rabbani.
