[[Upasika]] [H.P.B.] is sick, so you must do as I tell you. Read them aloud to her (the chapters of [[Man: Fragments of Forgotten History (book)|Man]] already finished), or, have [[Mohini Mohun Chatterji|Mohini]] do so, successively, to relieve you, and to [[Henry Steel Olcott|H.S.O.]] [[Morya|'M']] will follow it with [[Djual Khool|D.K.]] [Djual Khool], and stop you through her when correction is needed. You have done good work, child. I am satisfied. Be strong; do not think of home; all is well that ends well. Trust to the future and be hopeful.

::K.H.

== Context and background ==

[[Curuppumullage Jinarājadāsa|Mr. Jinarajadasa]] provided these notes about this series of letters numbered 30-41. They were clearly written before Letters 4 to 20, which have reference to Mrs Holloway:

<blockquote>
[[Mary K. Neff|Miss Mary K. Neff]] was well known for her record of service to various Indian schools, and especially for her work during two years at the [[Adyar (campus)|Theosophical Headquarters, at Adyar]], indexing all the letters and documents which are in the Archives of the Society. She had dedicated herself especially to the history of H.P.B.'s movements and had published ''Personal Memories of H.P. Blavatsky''.

She found in a magazine ''The World'' published in New York, articles by [[Laura Carter Holloway|Mrs Langford]] in the issues of May and June 1912. These contain certain instructions received by her from the Master K.H... I publish these letters, as they contain much valuable instructions, for all who are preparing to tread the path to the Masters.<ref>C. Jinarajadasa, 161-162.</ref>
</blockquote>
