Letter to Xu Zhixing [l)
(July 25, 1954)
Brother Zhixing:
I received your letter from March a long time ago and apologize for my
late reply. I am very pleased to learn that you are still engaged in
educational work. With this, I conclude my letter.
Wishing you peace and good health in the approaching autumn.
