ss="faded-content">It was in September 1934 that I arrived again in the old place of my former employment. The first thing I got on arrival at the office, a letter from the Secretariat in reply to my request from India before leaving, was, to my utter disappointment and frustration that my application could not be considered as I had already signed the agreement. No amount pleading would avail. I had to submit. Thusthe story of my second innings commenced in right earnest with the usual optimism. Before I left home this time my mother had told me that she would very much like me to get married before I left for foreign shores. So also was Mr. Durai’s advice. I promised my mother that I would certainly get married as soon as she found a suitable match and I left.
