Letter to Zhu Lang

(May 16, 1950)

Dear Brother Zhu Ekun,

Your letter of last August has been received, for which I am very grateful. It is very good that you have the aspiration to study. It would be best to find a way to enroll in a school locally, without having to travel far. I wonder if you would agree. This is my reply.

Wishing you progress,

Mao Zedong
