C/O MRS. E. TOTTEN. 1708, 1ST STREET, WASHINGTON, D.C. *27th Oct., 1894.*▶

DEAR MRS. BULL,▶

Many thanks for your kindness in sending me the introduction to Mr. Frederic Douglas. You need not be sorry on account of the ill-treatment I received at the hands of a low class hotel-keeper at Baltimore. It was the fault of the Vrooman brothers. Why should they take me to a low hotel?▶

And then the American women, as everywhere, came to my rescue, and I had a very good time.▶

In Washington I am the guest of Mrs. E. Totten who is an influential lady here and a metaphysician. She is moreover the niece of one of my Chicago friends. So everything is going on all right. I also saw Mrs. Colville and Miss Young here.▶

With my eternal love and gratitude for you,▶

I remain, Yours etc., VIVEKANANDA.▶
