Kanichi Yamamoto had become a Bahá’í in Hawaii in 1902 and wanted to write ‘Abdu’l-Bahá of his acceptance, but with only rudimentary English, he struggled to compose his letter. Finally, at the suggestion of his Bahá’í teacher, Elizabeth Muther, he wrote his letter in Japanese. ‘Abdu’l-Bahá's reply answered all his questions. Moto wrote several letters to ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, all in Japanese, and received replies to each. In 1904, one of Moto's letters reach the Master via Helen Goodall and He showed it to Yunis Khan-i-Afrukhtih, one of his secretaries: the Master mused, "Well now, you do not know Japanese." "No Beloved", I volunteered. "I hardly know English". "So what are we to do with this letter?" He remarked smiling. I bowed, and in my heart proposed, "The same thing you do with other letters". "Very well then", He said, "We will rely on the Blessed Beauty and will write him a reply."
