BAGHBAZAR, CALCUTTA,.
28th November, 1888.
DEAR SIR, (Shri Pramadadas Mitra)
I have received the book of Pnini which you so kindly sent me. Please accept my grat.i.tude for the same. I had an attack of fever again - hence I could not reply to you immediately. Please excuse. I am ailing much. I am praying to the Divine Mother to keep you happy physically and mentally.
Your servant,

BARANAGORE,.
22nd February, 1889.
DEAR SIR, (Shri Pramadadas Mitra) I had intended to go to Varanasi, and I planned to reach there after visiting the birthplace of my Master. But unluckily on the way to that village I had an attack of high fever followed by vomiting and purging as in cholera. There was again fever after three or four days - and as the body is now so weak that I can barely walk even two steps, I have been compelled now to give up my previous intention. I do not know what is G.o.d's will, but my body is quite unfit for treading on this path. Anyway, the body is not everything. Recovering my health after a few days here, I entertain the hope of visiting you there. The will of Vishweshwara, the Lord of the universe, will prevail - whatever that may be. You also kindly bless me. My respects to you and brother Jnanananda.
Your servant,

RESPECTED SIR, (Shri Pramadadas Mitra) It is several days since I received your last letter. Please excuse the delay in replying, which was due to some special reasons. I am very ill at present; there is fever now and then, but there is no disorder in the spleen or other organs. I am under homeopathic treatment. Now I have had to give up completely the intention of going to Varanasi. Whatever G.o.d dispenses will happen later on, according to the state of the body. If you meet brother Jnanananda, please tell him not to be held up there in expectation of my coming. My going there is very uncertain. My regards to you and Jnanananda.
Yours sincerely,
IV.

14th July, 1889.
RESPECTED SIR, (Shri Pramadadas Mitra) I was very glad to get your letter. In such circ.u.mstances many give the advice to incline towards the worldly life. But you are truthful and have an adamantine heart. I have been highly comforted by your encouraging and cheering words. My difficulties here have almost come to a close - only I have engaged the services of a broker for the sale of a piece of land, and I hope the sale will be over soon. In that case, I shall be free from all worry and shall at once go straight off to you to Varanasi.
Your servant,

4th June, 1890.
RESPECTED SIR, (Shri Pramadadas Mitra) I got your letter. There is no doubt that your advice is very wise. It is quite true that the Lord's Will will prevail. We also are spreading out here and there in small groups of two or three. I also got two letters from brother Gangadhar. He is at present in the house of Gagan Babu suffering from an attack of influenza. Gagan Babu is taking special care of him. He will come here as soon as he recovers. Our respectful salutations to you.
Your servant,
VIVEKANANDA.
PS. Abhedananda and others are all doing well.
