P.S. The dispatch of this letter was inadvertently delayed. In the meantime your recent correspondence was received.

In reply to your question as to how to exercise a good influence on your brother - needless to say, this depends largely upon the psychological make-up of your brother, his disposition, feelings, knowledge etc. Therefore it would be advisable for you to consult with friends who know your brother personally.

With regard to your remarks about wishing to study to become a Jewish teacher, this, generally speaking, is a good idea. However as to how it suits you, this, again, depends upon your qualities and capacities, and it would therefore also be advisable to discuss the matter with friends who know you personally.
