RIDGELY MANOR, *4th September, 1899*.▶

MY DEAR MOTHER,▶

It is an awful spell of the bad turn of fortune with me last six months. Misfortune follows me ever wherever I go. In England, Sturdy seems to have got disgusted with the work; he does not see any asceticism in us from India. Here no sooner I reach than Olea gets a bad attack.▶

Shall I run up to you? I know I cannot be of much help, but I will try my best in being useful.▶

I hope everything will soon come right with you, and Olea will be restored to perfect health even before this reaches you. Mother knows best; that is all about me.▶

Ever yours affectionately,▶

VIVEKANANDA.▶
