Prasanta Kumar Pal wrote in his book that Rabindranath attended a meeting of literary persons where Pramatha Choudhury, Hirendranath Datta, Jnanandranath Gupta, Anath Nath Basu were present. The function of this 'Sahitya Samity' was to assist the journal, 'Sahitya' edited by Suresh Chandra Samajpati. The name of the organisation was 'Suhrid Samity'.
Then he went to Bolpur and stayed there in the two storied building, named 'Shantiniketan', constructed two years earlier in the open space as a 'prayer house' (19th oct 1888) by his father. Before this occasion Maharshi made his Trust Deed for Shantiniketan. It was at that time barren land and there was no construction other than this building. There Rabindranath did some literary work. He wrote some poems for his 'Manasi' Kabyagrantha.
