64 – the story of al-haj Rashid ahmad american There was a roundtable discussion about different makes of guns and the condition of different governments. From that dinner the Hazrat was invited to another dinner at the house of an Ahmadi, but there was no Ahmadi mission there. The dinner lasted until 11:15 in the night. Returning to York House, a delegate from Karachi arrived to see the Hazrat and invited him to come to Karachi after Quetta and to stay there a while with them. AUGUST 1, 1950 The Private Secretary, M i a n Muhammad Y u suf, left for Karachi to try to get a passage on a boat to go to the Pilgrimage in Mecca. The papers said that the H ajj pilgrims had some disagreement between the countries. AUGUST 5, 1950 Mr. Kunze’s nik ah ceremony was arranged in the Mosque by the Hazrat, saying that they would marry after we return to Rabwah, first going to Sindh, then to Karachi, reaching Rabwah towards the end of September or the first of October. These last days in Quetta are being spent going to teas and dinners. One’s stomach is so full when one thinks of going to Sindh, where there will be so many more dinner parties.
