X was a letter written by Y to Tarak Nath Das in 14 December 1908. The letter was written in response to two letters sent by Das, seeking support from Y, for India's independence from British colonial rule. The letter was published in the Indian newspaper Free Hindustan. The letter caused young Mohandas Gandhi to write to Y to ask for advice and for permission to reprint the letter X in Gandhi's own South African newspaper, Indian Opinion, in 1909. Mohandas Gandhi was stationed in South Africa at the time and just beginning his lifelong activist career. He then translated X himself, from the original English copy sent to India, into his native Gujarati.
