‘Look after the Works’

To Bukkapatnam Karanam

With blessings from Baba,

Received your letter. We consulted an engineer at your suggestion for park. He gave us a plan. The equipment required for the park cannot be brought from here. The load will be too small for a lorry. So you make arrangements to produce them there. I could have made some arrangement for them here also, but I have to leave for Vizag by 7 o’ clock flight on the 11th. From there, I go to Bobbili; so, I could not attend to this work. You arrange for the doors and windows. I shall send money or pay when I come there. Even beams can be purchased there. We cannot bring even 10 from here. Write to me with details. If we purchase here, we have to obtain permission for transport. It will be a task to transport steel. We handed over our building works to contractors from Machildin State Engineering. They will take care of all the difficulties. So, you have to look after all the works. Sending money will be my responsibility. Convey my blessings to your family and children. Convey my blessings to the families next to your house, nothing more.
