Ashram, Sabarmati
March 11, 1926

Here is another cable from South Africa. I wonder if you or Sorabji sent any reply to Kajee's first cable referred to in the accompanying. If nothing was sent do please send a satisfactory reply now.
The reply I have sent to the enclosed cable is as follows:
"Sent opinion Delhi Committee week ago."

Yours
