If the marriage of the sister of patal took place this time, Patal also would go. Bolpur did not see such a vacant days. Even Jatin Palit and Debal also had gone. There were some news also about Sami in this letter. Sami got fever for arranging books in the library.Within his fever he was practicing song and doing discussion on Kabya. It was found that his attraction in songs had increased too much. Almost everyday he was singing the song, "Eki labanye purna pran" and moving around. It could not be said that the tune was perfect . The love for music was also expressed by his class mate Sudhiranjan, " Sami was looking exactly similar to that of Gurudev, same complexion, same face cutting and same looking style. He could sing briliantly."
Another classmate Sudhakanta Roychoudhury in his memoirs about Sami expressed that he could remember clearly when he was asked by the new music teacher respected Sri Ajit Kumar Chakraborty. He started singing after a brief pause on seeing some unknown face the song 'Purna Pranesh', and after a few minutes sung another song "Bahe nirantara anantadhara". It was so sweet that was never heard before. He added that he was living in Lucknau through out his life for which he could not listen such melodious song.
