THOUSAND ISLAND PARK C/O MISS DUTCHER N. Y.▶

*27th July '95*▶

DEAR MOTHER —▶

I will be ever so much obliged if you kindly look into the "bead" affair. (Rudrâksha beads sent from India. *Vide* letter dated January 17, 1895 in *Complete Works* , VI.) I think there will be a little duty to pay. I will pay it to you when I come.▶

I start from here next week. I will be in Detroit a day or two on my way. I will be in by the third or fourth of August.▶

With Everlasting love, your Son,▶

VIVEKANANDA▶
