The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda/Volume 8/Epistles - Fourth Series/LXVI Friend

To Mr. E. T. Sturdy
RIDGELY MANOR,
29th December, 1895.
DEAR FRIEND,
By this time the copies of the lectures must have reached you. Hope they may
be of some use.
I think, in the first place, there are so many difficulties to overcome; in
the second place, they think that they are fit for nothing — that is the
national disease; thirdly, they are afraid to face the winter at once; the
Tibet man they don't think is a very strong man to work in England. Some one
will come sooner or later.
Yours in the Sat,
VIVEKANANDA.
PS. My Christmas greetings to all our friends — to Mrs. and Mr. Johnson, to
Lady Margesson, Mrs. Clark, Miss Hawes, Miss Müller, Miss Steel, and all the
rest. — V.
Kiss baby for me and bless him. My greetings to Mrs. Sturdy. We will work.
"Wah guru ki fateh." — V.
