ଅଧ୍ୟାପକ ଆର୍ତ୍ତବଲ୍ଲଭ ମହାନ୍ତିଙ୍କ ନିକଟକୁ ପତ୍ର
9th June, 1932
My Dear Rai Saheb,
The Utkal Luminary which illuminated the Indian
Firmament has set, and has gone down the horizon. But an
observer can see the rich colours reflected in the Western sky.
We all wish to see the great luminary rise once more and
give us the dawn of a new national life.
Your have devoted a good deal of your valuable time to
direct the attention of the present generation to the ancient
literature of the nation. The beautiful colours in the Western
sky must be fully appreciated, loved and admired before the
youthful mind is aglow with a desire to see the dawn of a new
national life.
The honour conferred on you should have come earlier.
But you are young and I am sure you will receive higher honours
not only from Government but from your nation, who will crown
you with ever green laurels while you live and when you leave
this world, you will receive a crown of life from your creator
for your services to your nation and country.
With best wishes for health, happiness and prosperity.
Yours very Sincerely
Sd. M.S.DAS
