Dearest Orol:

Your looked for letter was very welcome and I hope you get this before starting East. By same mail I read word from the president of the Women’s Club in San F. that my appeal to them had been referred to their Executive Com. [page 2, image 126] It was a foregone conclusion that they could not help financially as they had written in their constitution that the Club could only render “Social Service.” I made many friends there during the months I was staying as Mrs Cooper’s guest and so concluded to try for practical help outside [page 3, image 127] the ranks [“the” and “ranks” underlined]

Miss Leale’s letter was most friendly and I have responded likewise and shall never forget their personal kindness.

I rec’d a fine letter from Mr. Hatch - mailed in Acca. I have not his American address, so ask you to tell him that his newsy letter has been translated in several of our gatherings and [page 4, image 128] many made happy by news of the beloved Guardian and of his activity in improving Carmel and Acca.

I am going this P.M. to a meeting at the house of returned pilgrims - Mr. and Mrs. Aesasie, so we will get the latest news.

I hope you go to Amsterdam - my sisters Mrs Robb 20 Grone St. and Mrs Striker 62 Division St. will be glad to see you & you can tell them that the Sharps are happy & so am I. Tarbiat Banat closed with 600 girls on register. Here’s hoping!

Regards to Mr. Platt & love & love for Orol. Ever Amat ol a’ Allah
