In His Most Exalted Name
Dhou'l-Hijjah 16,1397 AH
I wish to say that evidently your honor had telegraphed me on this tragedy and that commemorative services were held in Yazd. I would like to thank your honor and all the other gentlemen. As I do not know which individuals have telegraphed me, I should be excused from thanking them individually. I pray to God Almighty for the health and happiness of your honor and of the other gentlemen. I hope that none of you will forget me in your benevolent prayers for my salvation. May God's peace and mercy be upon you. I request you to convey my thanks to all of the gentlemen.
