In His Most Exalted Name
Rabi` al-Awwal 2,1397 AH
His Eminence Sayyid al-A`lam Aqa Wahidi, may his blessings last long:
I have received your esteemed letter some time ago. My indisposition and ill-health, as well as difficulties, have caused the delay in my reply to you. In connection with the stipends, please write and let me know the number of students engaged in studies who have taken their examinations and about their obtaining employment while being students, married or single. It is better for the list to have all details together with the level of their education. The appropriate amount will be given, God willing, after receiving the list. Please do not forget me in your benevolent prayers. You had written to say:" You did not write anything about the arrangement." I do not remember what it is about. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
