The letter was addressed to Gandhi Ji's father.
- As Gandhiji's elder brother had a debt to pay, to generously help him in repaying his debt, Gandhiji took some gold from his brother's armlet.
- Later, his act of stealing made Gandhi Ji feel guilty. Gandhiji did not want his father to be hurt, but he could not bear the shame of living with him. Hence he wanted to confess his father.
- Gandhiji confessed in a letter to his dear father that he had stolen it and justly demanded sufficient punishment for his wrongdoing.
- He also requested his father to punish him for the unacceptable action and vowed he would never steal again.
