LETTERS ADDRESSED TO INDIVIDUAL BAHA’IS IN INDIA Letter of June 20, 1923. 186 187 |
Our dear Shoghi Effendi owing to the shock he received
at the sudden news of the Ascension of our Master and owing
to the great fatigue occasioned to him through the excess of
work has become susceptible to malaria of which Haifa is a
great centre. This summer is very hot too. He was troubled
with malaria two days or three in every week. So the members
of the Holy Family conjointly with the Haifa Spiritual Assembly
repeatedly begged him to change his residence during these
hot summer months to some cooler climate. At last he affectionately
accepted our humble entreaty and left this morning
for Egypt whence he’ll proceed to some summer resort as he
considers suitable. He wishes all the friends to be more
active in his absence.
