Dear Baha'i Brother:

The Beloved Guardian has directed me to write to your Assembly, with
regard to the Tristan da Cunha Island.

Earlier in the Ten Year Crusade, one of the English Baha'is offered to
settle in this Island, in order to establish the Faith there. At that
time, the Guardian felt we must concentrate on the goals of the Crusade
only. Now, however, the Friends have won so many victories, and the goals
of the Crusade are being gained currently, early in the Crusade, he feels
supplementary areas may be settled--and for that matter, supplementary
activities engaged in.

Thus, if this friend still wishes to settle in the Island of Tristan da
Cunha, he would welcome it being done.

If only the home front would surge ahead, then the Crusade would surely be
moving ahead of the schedule. Let us pray those at home will arise with
the same dedication, and consecration as the valiant pioneers, causing a
new life to be manifest on all home fronts.

The Guardian sends the members of your Assembly his loving greetings....
