This large and influential gathering rejoices to see that you are the first Hindu among the whole Hindu community of India, to take your wife to America and to give practical illustration of the life of an Indian Hindu woman to our sisters of the Western Hemispere A. short stay of nearly two years of your son Master Moban in America, and his training in an American educational institution, give us every hope that he will be a second Gandhi after you to pickup, with the greatest zeal and interest, the work which you have commenced so successfully of implanting "India in America.".
In conclusion, we wish you a hearty bon Voyaga to England and America and a happy return to our dear country after fulfilling your noble mission of preaching Oriental Philosophy.
