The beloved of the Lord and the handmaids of the Merciful
throughout Germany.

My dearly-beloved friends:
|

Our well-beloved brother and fellow-worker Dr.
Esslemont acting on medical advice is proceeding to the
Black Forest for treatment and recuperation. He has been
suffering of late from ill-health which has interfered with the
unique and most valuable work he has been doing in Haifa.
His past services, his selflessness and devotion, his book of
unsurpassed excellence, his noble character and great
industry entitle him to the highest esteem and warmest
affection of every true Bahá'í.
|

He has been advised to spend the hot summer months in a
dry and cool climate and to secure proper medical treatment
in a quiet and restful place. I am sure that the German
friends who have already learned to love and admire such a
precious and capable servant of the Cause will do all in their
power to extend to him every facility and ensure his full and
speedy recovery.
|

He will be accompanied by our dear Bahá'í sister, Mrs.
Lowell, who is returning to America via Germany and
whom you will be glad to welcome in your midst.
|

Assuring you of my affection and prayers,
|
7 |
I am your brother in His service
