Mr. Sinnett — you will receive a long letter — posted Sunday at Bombay — from the Brahmin boy.

The boy has a little bungled up the message so be very careful before you show it to Mr. Hume lest he should again misunderstand my Brother's real meaning. I will not stand any more nonsense, or bad feeling against him, but retire at once.

We do the best we can. M.
