Hurrying to the railway station, Eruch handed the typed message to those about to depart.
By the next day, the entire Hindi group had departed, and preparations were underway for the incoming Marathi group. The number of this fourth and final group had increased to more than 200 men. Baba came to Meherabad on 25 November, and discussed with Pendu and other mandali about increasing arrangements for the sahavasees' accommodations. In front of Baba's cabin, an additional pandal was raised, in which Baba instructed Pendu to make room for some of the extra guests.
On the 26th, he brought the women mandali to see the sahavas arrangements. They returned to Meherazad, and Baba attended a qawaali performance in the afternoon from 2:00 to 5:00 at lower Meherabad by the Khuldabad qawaals. The singers had good voices and Baba highly enjoyed their performance.
By the afternoon of the 27th, almost all of the 213 Marathi contingent members had arrived. The garden was again full of birds, and their sweet singing commenced. Buses ferrying the lovers to Meherabad ran continually to and from the station until 2:00 A.M., and the mandali kept awake to see that everyone was accommodated properly in the tents. Because this was the last group and the largest so far, several men who did not speak Marathi were also permitted to attend.
Baba came to Meherabad from Meherazad at 7:15 A.M., on Monday, 28 November 1955 and walked straight to his cabin, where he discussed arrangements with the mandali. Meanwhile, the sahavas group collected on the verandah holding garlands. As soon as Baba came out of his cabin, the air resounded with thunderous cries of "Avatar Meher Baba Ki Jai!" Baba entered the hall. The congregation began garlanding him; but unlike the Hindi and Telugu groups, the Marathi sahavas group was not orderly, as more than one at a time would rush forward to garland him.
