Shoghi Effendi wishes me to acknowledge the receipt of your
letter dated June 22nd, 1926. He is most appreciative of the
many and continuous services you are rendering to the Cause in
that land. Your efficiency, sincerity and untiring zeal are great
assets for the friends in England….
|
Shoghi Effendi fully approves of your suggestion to put a
royalty on the translations of Dr. Esslemont’s book equal to what
he had arranged for the original. Not only is that a fair thing to
do but also it is incumbent upon us to show our appreciation of
Dr. Esslemont’s services to the Cause by safeguarding the interests
of his family, especially as his wife is an invalid and in need of
help. Shoghi Effendi specially wants me to ask you to show
utmost consideration to her interests.

|
|
I hope you will assure Mrs. Esslemont on my behalf and express to
her my warm approval of your suggestion which would safeguard her
interests and prove of some assistance to her….
|
Assuring you of my earnest prayers for your continued and
unsparing efforts for the promotion of the Cause you serve so well,
|
I am your grateful brother,
Shoghi
