Dear Baha'i Sister,

The Guardian has duly received your beautiful message of 2nd of December,
and he wishes me to thank you for it, as well as for the enclosed copy of
the Auckland Assembly's circular letter which he has delivered to the
spiritual assembly of Haifa for their perusal.

He also wishes me to ask you to kindly inform Mrs Blundell of the receipt
of the twenty five copies of the Maori pamphlet which she had lately
mailed to him. These, together with those she had sent previously, have
all been placed in his own library, and a few copies have also been placed
in the Mansion of Baha'u'llah at Bahji for the information of the general
public.

In closing the Guardian wishes me to renew to you the expressions of his
abiding and genuine appreciation of your labours for the Cause in
Auckland, and particularly in connection with your duties as secretary of
the local assembly. He is praying from the very depths of his heart for
your progress and success in this important field of Baha'i service.

With heartiest greetings to you and all the friends.

Yours in His Service,
H. Rabbani

[From the Guardian:]

_Dearly beloved co-worker:_

_I wish to assure you of my deepest appreciation of your constant and
manifold services to the Faith, and particularly of the share you have had
in consolidating its administrative institutions in both Australia and New
Zealand, whether local or national. My prayers will continue to be offered
from the bottom of my heart for you and for your dear co-workers.
Persevere and never feel disheartened._

Beloved Baha'i co-worker,

...In connection with the N.S.A.'s(8) decision regarding the appointment
of Mrs. Axford and Mr. Inman to keep records of Australian and New-Zealand
activities for the "Baha'i World"; the Guardian wishes you to assure your
fellow-members in the assembly that he fully endorses their choice. He
also wishes you to impress the newly-appointed correspondents with the
vital importance of their task, and to urge them to acquit themselves of
it with thoroughness, efficiency and vigour....
