28-6-1934My dear Sardar Sahib,

You will receive this letter of mine after you will have read that I have permanently and completely retired from all Panthic activities and that I shallnot resume them at any future time unless some special need for me is felt bythe Panth. Moreover, for some months, I shall live at some remote placeunknown to my friends and relatives. The object is that I should hear noreasons of friends and no taunts of opponents.

At this parting I remember you not only as a friend but also as a patronwho was so kind to me when I was a student. No doubt I fell out with youoccasionally, but your regard never diminished in my heart. I have a greatregard for your qualities and love for your loving heart.

But I feel much remorse to remember that I wrote something about youwhich I should not have written. I remember two such things. One I correctedimmediately afterwards and the other remains uncorrected. But this whichremains uncorrected should not be corrected, for correction itself is itsrepetition. The fact is that I published this without knowing that it means. Iunderstood it after it was published. An editor of a daily newspaper isoverworked and he is apt to make much mistakes when some clevercorrespondent puts something cleverly. I am much ashamed for committingsuch a folly and I never dared to ask your pardon. But my heart has always

been heavy. I am sure you are too magnanimous to remember such things, but to lighten my heart at this parting when I am turning new leaf in my life, I beg you on bent knees to excuse me.

I am not giving you my address. So you cannot reply but I presume thatyou will forgive me even though you do not know what it is that you are

forgiving. With faith in the greatness of your heart, I lighten my heart.Yours sincerely

Tara SinghSardar Sunder Singh Ji Majithia,Amritsar.
