Solomon, Nick

Letter, November 6, 1931160

[Mr. Solomon, student at the Ulverston School, Swarthmore, which sought to train students to be able to help in peace work, wrote to Gandhiji on September 21, 1931, that his school planned to publish a periodical devoted to the cause of international peace. He requested a message to be printed in the first issue. Mr. Solomon's sister, Camille, was then staying at Kingsley Hall in London, as was Gandhiji who was attending the Round Table Conference.161]

Dear friend,
I thank you for your letter. Of course I see your sister often. You must excuse me from the task you have imposed upon me - I have really not the knack for writing messages to order. Without knowing anything of the paper, surroundings and the life, I should not know what to write.

Yours sincerely,

Nick Solomon, Esq.

Swarthmore, Pa.
