Mrs. St. Nihal Singh and I look forward to the pleasure of calling upon you shortly after our return to Bangalore, probably during the 3rd week of the month. We are leaving tomorrow for a tour of Sravana Belgola, Belur, Helibad, Mordabidri and Karkal. Upon our return we are likely to pay a flying visit to Ooty, where we hope we shall meet your friend. With highest personal regards, Believe me.
Yours sincerely,
St. NIHAL SINGH

My dear Acharya Vijaya Indra Suriji,
I have not had the pleasure of hearing from you for a long time and wonder in what part of our brotherhood you are.
I had to undergo an operation at the Victoria Hospital in Bangalore city. It was painful but not serious and I have been laid up for weeks. The wounds have, fortunately, healed up and Mrs. St. Nihal Singh and propose leaving for Bombay on Sunday. We shall stay there as usual, at the Taj Mahal Hotel, but please address letters to me c/o. Messrs. Thos. Cook & Son (Bankers) Ltd, Bombay.
Where is Doctor Subhadradevi? We have not heard from her for months.
I should like to have from you a list of all the important places sacred to Jainism, with an indication as to the railway station nearest to each, so that I may visit them as I travel about India.
With kindest regards from Mrs. St. Nihal Singh and myself.
Yours very sincerely,
St. NIHAL SINGH
