Khak Saheb visited Meherabad for a day on 22 September, and Burjor Dahiwala of Bombay arrived three days later. Raosaheb had gone to Bombay for some work, so Baba himself gave a bath to each of the boys that day. K. J. Dastur left for Bombay on the 28th.
One day a large gift parcel of sweets arrived. Baba gave a small amount to Sidhu and then asked him to gather the boys. While on the way to get them, Sidhu ate his share of the sweets.
When he returned with the boys, Baba asked, "Where is the sweet I gave you?"
Sidhu innocently replied that he had eaten it.
Baba exclaimed, "You shameless idiot! When the children have not had any, you have already finished your share? Vomit it up!"
To induce vomiting, Sidhu put two fingers in his mouth. Seeing this, Baba laughed and told him to stop, as he was joking.
Sheriarji and Beheram arrived from Poona on Saturday afternoon, 1 October 1927 for a short visit, and Gustadji's older brother Sohrab Hansotia the next day. Gustadji's younger brother Slamson (Ardeshir) had lived with the mandali for some years, and Sohrab was permitted also to join the mandali at Meherabad for an extended stay. On 2 October, Rustom's wife Freiny, who was then in her ninth month of pregnancy, came to Meherabad for her weekly visit to see Baba. Soon after she returned to Ahmednagar, she gave birth to a baby girl whom she named Mehera after her sister. The child was later called Meheru .
Mohan Shahane came to see Baba on the 4th. Dassera was observed the next day with a procession up the hill and distribution of sweets (sent by Rustom in honor of the birth of his daughter). Baily arrived in the morning, and Padri, Adi Sr. and Sarosh, who had been sent to Bombay, returned that night.
Baba remained on the hill for six hours on Friday, 7 October 1927, from noon to 6:00 P.M., inspecting (and finding faults with) all departments. Field hockey was again played by Baba's order. Baba spent most of the following days on the hill also, going at about 10:00 A.M. and returning at five or six in the evening.
One of Baba's old acquaintances, a doctor from Deccan College whom Baba had often visited when he attended college there, came to Meherabad on 8 October. The doctor met Baba and asked a few questions about gods and mythology.
