6 PLACE DES ETATS UNIS, PARIS, *October, 1900*.▶

MY DEAR MADEMOISELLE,▶

I have been very happy and content here. I am having the best of times after many years. I find life here with Mr. Bois very satisfactory — the books, the calm, and the absence of everything that usually troubles me.▶

But I don't know what kind of destiny is waiting for me now.▶

My letter is funny, isn't it? But it is my first attempt.▶

Yours faithfully, VIVEKANANDA.▶
