From the Baker Hostel in Calcutta, Waji Ullah wrote one more letter to Irwin. The war was over. Talk of an independent Burma was circulating and ethnic turmoil was already igniting throughout the country. As a Rohingya in 1946, he wrote about the troubles of Muslims in Burma. He wrote about Burmese independence. He wrote about his belief in freedom and the power of law.

The original letter from Waji Ullah to Anthony Irwin. March 23, 1946

“In Burma and in many other places all the people are rioting and demonstrating for freedom. But in fact I do not agree with the demonstrators and rioters. I am all for the constitution. I want the constitution to be an honest master."
