Comrade Zuojun:

I have received your letter of December 2 and am very pleased. You have probably already returned to Taiyuan. I have received some of your previous letters, though it seems not all of them. We are all well. I hope you will study diligently. Next time you come to Beijing, notify me in advance (contact my chief guard Li Yinqiao by telephone), and we can meet.

Best wishes!
Mao Zedong
December 12, 1955
