We received your letters and also the cheque for Rajen's Blazer. I shall be spending the money on Saturday morning.

Your letter of 14 April arrived a couple days ago, looks like mail is not too regularly to this sand blown place.

Meant to do this long ago but you know how it goes when one has 101 things to do and only a short time to do it in, and so our time here in the States is fast coming to an end.

Greetings from Maputo! There has been much confusion here. The meeting starts on the 25th and Mathabata was asked to give me a message to that effect. It’s a pity he didn’t give you a message to pass on, as I can’t easily be away for 2 weeks with so much to do back home.

Letter from John to Phyllis Naidoo

Letter from John Vant Hoff to Phyllis Naidoo.

I really would have come, but Ashika was coming so my mummy said Ashika just couldn’t stay all by herself. So I had to stay. I really do miss you so much. My passport expires next year I think.

Letter from Jolene to Suks

Thank you very much for your loving letter which came yesterday. But don't, I'm staying here - I came for life and I'm not going anywhere, except to visit Sr Camilla in Kimberley Nov. 9 - Dec. 1.
