14 rue Nungesser et Coli, Paris XVI. - Last time Trevelyan wrote he was kind enough to say he would see if he could help Andrusha with his study at the Zurich Politechnicum. It is now time for him to go, and their finances are 'in a deplorable state', and they would all be very grateful. Gives his expenses: fees for education, an examination, and laboratory work, as well as money for instruments. The greatest expense would be for living costs, but she hopes to arrange for him to stay with a 'very nice old lady' who is a friend of hers. They are all, including Reksucha [the dog] very happy to have [Hasan Shahid] Suhrawardy back with them. The change in climate was not good for him, but she hopes he will be better soon. Envies him for being able to return to his country; she 'feel[s] it so much' that she herself cannot go to her own. It was a joy to hear the poems he has written in India, which show that he has 'got much there for his spirit and talent'; he reminded her of how he was when he was young; his new poems are 'very brilliant'. He was 'very disappointed' by India in his letter, but she sees now that there is also a 'fresh and tendre [sic] stream of love to the country' which even conquered the 'mesquinerie' [meanness] of his parents and others. They all send their 'low greetings': a Russian phrase which she explains.
