I send you one of Z’s missives. The last para is private and nonmedical but apart from that you may perhaps convey to Becharlal the substance of this despatch – the horrible tale of the alarming Lila that is going on in her stomach.Sri Aurobindo

Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar
November 16, 1936
M.G. says the doctor (M.B. only) at Calcutta didn’t advise quinine without blood exam.
[Sri Aurobindo put a question mark above “M.B. only”.]
What’s this algebra?
His case looks like malaria. Is it necessary to examine blood?
Examine blood for what? To see if it is malaria?
G has been taking half a cup of extra milk. He wants to give it up now. Should he cease?
No. He must continue – unless he prefers cod-liver oil.

Please return the epistle.
