Greatly deplore passing of distinguished disciple of `Abdu'l-Bahá, firm pillar of the American Bahá'í Community, George Latimer. His outstanding services during closing years of the Heroic and first epoch of the Formative Ages of the Faith are imperishable. Assure bereaved, dearly loved, much admired mother of my profound sympathy and fervent prayers for the progress of his soul.
