Dr. Hoernle's Letters
(8) 6 Marien Strasse, Bonn (on Rhine)
16 Jan. 1891. Mr. Magganlal Dalpatram
Bombay Mills Company. DEAR SIR,
The object of my letter is to inform you that I propose sailing from Genoa (on my return to India ) on the 10th February next, and to ask you not to send anything to my address here after the receipt of this letter but to keep everything till I arrive in Bombay, which will be about the 2nd March. I shall stay again at the Esplanade (Watson's ) Hotel, where you will be able to obtain news of my arrival.
You had promised me biographical notices of the Maharaj Atmārāmji. I have not received them yet, but am very anxious to receive them. I shall be very glad, if you could get them ready by the time I arrive in Bombay.
I also sent you some time ago a letter containing some questions which I wished you to get answered by the Maharäj Muni. Could you obtain the replies to those questions by the time I reach Bombay ?
The Mahâráj had promised to give me a copy of the work called Gyan Suryodaya Natak ( T ITT A1 ). Will you be good inquire, whether that work has been finished copying ? If so, I should be glad to receive it on my arrival in Bombay.
I enclose a list of questions for the Muni Mahárâj. Will you kindly forward it to him ?
I am due in Calcutta in the morning of the 10th March. I hope to arrive in Bombay on the 2nd March; and as my journey to Calcutta will occupy 3 or 4 days, I shall probably have some 4 or 5 days to spare. I should very much like to make use of these spare days, to see, if possible, some of the celebrated places of Jainism and also make a visit to the Muni. Perhaps by the time I arrive in Bombay, you may be able to ascertain the stopping places of the Muni, and advise me, how I may best carry out my object.
