AB  - Letter indicating that a quote about shaving of the beard is a mere pilgrim's note.
N1  - The statement in question is "For instance, we do not know what is the use of this nail. It grows and it is cut again. We see that we have the nail; but we do not know that there are a thousand wisdoms within the creation of this nail. For instance, men ask: Why should we have the beard; why should we have the moustache? They shave. But in reality there is a great wisdom in this. It is healthful. The skin receives the oxygen through the beard." See bahai.works/Star_of_the_West/Volume_3/Issue_11.
