Dyuman's Correspondence with The Mother

26 April 1934

Mother,

N often comes to me for work. If You like, we can give him the kerosene work. He will keep the account and give it to me daily; this will be a check upon him. I do not fear that he will misuse the articles entrusted to him. With a ray of faith that he may be changed, I submit this to You.

Did you speak to L about stopping the kerosene work? How does he take it? This is an important point.

If we give that work to N it must be with a very strong warning that he must be absolutely scrupulous, that any breach of trust would be taken very seriously. He must give regular accounts daily which will be submitted to me.

All love and blessings with you.

I hear that A's salad leaves have been thrown in the dust bin! What a horrible wastage! So many people would have been glad to get them, it is such wholesome food! I cannot understand such a thing.

If it was too much work to put them in the general cooking, at least they could have been given away. S would have been so happy to get them. I hope that in future such a thing will not happen again.
