25th April, 1895.
DEAR BROTHER (To Dr. I. Janes.),
I was away in the Catskill mountains and it was almost impossible to get a
letter regularly posted from where I was — so accept my apology for the
delay in offering you my most heartfelt thanks for your letter in the
"Eagle".
It was so scholarly, truthful and noble and withal so permeated with your
natural universal love for the good and true everywhere. It is a great work
to bring this world into a spirit of sympathy with each other but it should
be done no doubt when such brave souls as you still hold your own. Lord help
you ever and ever my brother and may you live long to carry on the mighty
work you and your society has undertaken.
With my gratitude and love to you and to the members of the Ethical Society.
I remain Yours ever truly,
VIVEKANANDA.
