Mr. Zuolin:

Your letter of March 23 and the photograph have been received, for which I am deeply grateful. Your aspirations are very good.
Strengthen your studies and further training, and do more work beneficial to the people; you will surely be welcomed by the people.
I earnestly hope you will strive
to achieve this. This is my reply,
and I wish you
good health and well-being.
