O thou seeker of Truth!
Thy letter was received and thy thankfulness became evident.
Glorification of God is the cause of attraction of confirmation and draws down
the bounties of the Glorious Lord. Therefore the glances of the providence of
the True One shall ere long encircle all the family. I pray God that Pittsburgh
may be blessed. It is not permitted to distribute Baha’i pamphlets and
literature through the streets and markets. On account of the lack of time a
brief answer is given.
Upon thee be the Glory of God!
