LETTER OF 19 JANUARY 1957

19 January 1957

Dear Baha'i Sister:

I cabled you today, as follows: "What is status purchase Temple Land
Polischer Berg. Please cable."

I cabled you on January 8th that the Guardian approved purchase of the
land of Polischer Berg, with the assurance that there would be no
complications in connection with the erection of the Temple.

Your letter later spoke of the Temple Land near Kriftel, and I cabled to
ascertain if this is the same land as referred to at Polischer Berg. I
take it, it is.

The Guardian now hopes all matters are clarified, and that your Assembly
is in a position to purchase this land, and thus start the construction of
the Temple. Your early advice and confirmation will be appreciated by
him....

LETTER OF 19 JANUARY 1957

19 January 1957

Dear Baha'i Sister:

Miss Bertha Matthiessen, one of the dear Baha'is of Southern California,
who has spent some time in Germany, and is no doubt, well known to you; is
returning to Germany from the United States in March 1957.

She has written the Guardian that after a rest at Bad Nauheim, she will
get in touch with your Assembly, or the Teaching Committee, to assist in
the teaching work. The Guardian has written her, expressing his
appreciation of this offer on her part to assist in the important work in
Germany and Austria, and suggested that if she could settle in one of the
goal cities in Austria, after consultation with your Assembly or Teaching
Committee, it would be highly meritorious.

This note is sent to you
