[Letter of October 6, 1950]

He (the Guardian) is so happy to have you at last in j.a.pan, and feels your presence there will be of great help and inspiration to the j.a.panese friends.

They seem dear and devoted souls, and he rejoices to see that, after all these years, and the long period of patient toil you spent there in the past, the tree of the Faith has struck deep roots, and the fruits are beginning to appear at last.

He feels you, and dear Fujita too, should devote particular attention to deepening the friends in the Covenant, which is the ark of safety for every believer.

(in the Guardian's handwriting)

May the Almighty sustain, guide and bless you always, give you all the strength you need to enrich the splendid record of your past services in j.a.pan, and enable you continually to extend the range of your meritorious accomplishments.

Your true and grateful brother, Shoghi

[Letter of November 15, 1951]

He (the Guardian) urges you never to feel discouraged but to go on showering your love on the friends (in j.a.pan) and helping them to a deeper understanding of the Covenant.

The Guardian was pleased to hear Mr. Torii is arranging for the Hidden Words in Braille. Please thank him and a.s.sure him of the Guardian's loving prayers.
