Correspondence. Relation A related resource 665 Yale Station New Haven Conn. October 5, 1922 My dear Dr. Stearns: I am very glad to inform you that I have returned to New Haven since two nights ago after spending a good summer at home in Peking. I must apologize for not writing to you from China, as most of my time was engaged in visiting my relatives and answering the calls of friends who were both glad and interested to see me after a departure of three years from home country. I presume, however, that you have receive! a letter from my father not a long time ago. My return home was indeed a happy event, especially when my father learned the work I had done in school and in college here. I like very much to give you a detailed account of my visit when I meet you next time either in Andover or in New Haven, which I hope will not be distant. Just now, I like to let you know that I am in very good health. At Shanghai I called on Mr. Kung, An John’s father, at his home. To my great pleasure I was able to tell him personally the happenings after the tragic accident to the best of my knowledge and your feeling and sympathy toward An John’s untimely death as I understood it. I further added that I, being a good friend of An John and under the same guardianship of Mr. Stearns, could not help expressing my deepest sympathy. I then told him that you had not received any letter from him since Antung returned to China with An John’s body, and, since I was to return to America in a short time, I should be glad to take a message from him to Mr. Stearns and explain the best I could to avoid any misunderstanding that might rise. Mr. Kung,a very approachable, kind old gentleman, spoke to me frankly that He had written you two letters thru Antung, and again he wrote you a letter(registered) on July 7th, 1922 enclosed a draft, which was, of course, after I had left America. He was glad that I came to see him and later he asked me to bring you the letter which I enclose here and asked me to explain to you when I see you. Mr. Kung did not attempt to conceal from me his disappointment for Antung, now his only son, who has never written home for months and whose location his family never knew. In fact, he asked me if I would look for him and let him know his father’s disappointment. He said further that he was ever grateful for your guardianship over An John and what you had done for him after the accident; and since you had impressed him with your tireless devotion to the education of Chinese boys, he would ask you not to get discouraged simply because of one accident. The words which impressed me most were, as Mr. Kung said, as long as Mr. Stearns was so Enthusiastic and so devoted to the bringing-up of Chinese boys in America as he had done for my son, it made no difference whether An John was dead or living, and I should be just as grateful". My visit was thus ended. I am sure Mr. Kung has mentioned all the thing? you wish to know in his letter. I shall be glad to tell you more in detail when I see you. With best wishes, Enclosed a letter from Mr. Kung Sinley K.Y.

Correspondence. Relation A related resource Dr. Alfred E. Stearns, Principal, Phillips Andover Academy, Andover, Mass., U. S. A. My dear Dr. Stearns: Your kind letter dated March 2 has been received long ago. Had it not been for the fact that I have been trying to find out what has been the matter with the Kung's family, of which matter you have given me a good detailed account, and about which you have asked me; I should have answered you earlier. I have written once to Dr. Sing Ming Kung asking for an explanation of this matter; but there has been no answer. Then I went to Tong Shan Road, trying to find the house as you have given me in your letter. However, I could not find it, although I have quite a few friends living on that same street. I was trying to go over there again. But recently I have been very busy with the examination papers at the closing of the different schools. Then I shall also take a trip to my native city Changsha in the inland part of China, and I have been busy with the preparation for this trip. I am going to start tonight from Shanghai, and shall be back in two months time. Evidently I shall not be able to go again to find the kung’s family before my departure from here. However, I assure that as soon as I get back, I shall try my best to locate them. I know An Tung personally to some extent; this boy is rather careless in many of his actions. It is by no means right for him to keep silence after his departure from Andover. You have been only too kind to them brothers, just as you have always been to all the Chinese students with whom you happen to come into contact. He should know your anxiety for them. I really do not understand what has been the matter with them. I hope, however, that you might have heard from them by this time in seme way or other. Please let me know whether you have heard from them at all in the interval since you wrote me. In the meantime, I shall keep this matter in mind all the time. I am wondering, also, how much altogether does the family owe you. Regarding myself, I should say I have not made very much progress in the last year. I am still in the educational field although I prefer much to enter into diplomatic service. I taught in three different schools last year, and the work has been satisfactory so far. For next year I shall teach in Fuh Tan University and Chi-Nan Institute. As I said before, I shall be back to Shanghai before the end of August for next year's work.I hope to write you in more details and with better news later on. Assuring you of my sincerest wish for the prosperity of the school and the success of your own work. Very sincerely yours, C.C.Yu C.C.
