&#13;
Mr. Poong Shan Look&#13;
6 West Terrace&#13;
Hongkong, China&#13;
&#13;
My dear Mr. Look: &#13;
&#13;
I am enclosing herewith a statement showing your boy’s expenditures while he was at Andover, at least in so far as any disbursements have been made by me of the funds placed in my hands. The statement shows a balance in the boy’s favor of 311.43, American money, for which I have asked our local bank to furnish me the necessary draft on Hongkong. I enclose the same herewith and shall be pleased to have you acknowledge its receipt. The individual receipts for the various items mentioned are in my possession also and will be forwarded to you if desired. &#13;
&#13;
King proved a very attractive fellow to deal with personally. He was always a gentleman and amenable to school discipline and rules. A lack of serious purpose, however, has been characteristic of him and his tendency to enjoy the full all social and material things with the accompanying readiness to spend money freely may be said to be his chief weakness; but once the boy has settled down to hard work in business or profession, I believe that the best traits of character, of which he has many, will come to the front and will aid him making for himself a career that will be successful and of real value to the world. &#13;
&#13;
The report of the boy’s work for the spring term, which I enclose, indicates how far short King fell of meeting our scholarship requirements. We found it necessary to limit his work to two subjects that he might concentrate on these. Even this requirement proved out of his reach and you will note that the record is one of practically complete failure so far as scholastic accomplishment is concerned. The boy evidently needs closer personal supervision and more individual guidance than are possible in a large school such as ours. I hope that we may hear more gratifying reports of his progress in the days ahead. &#13;
&#13;
Very sincerely yours. &#13;

Mr. King Look,&#13;
6 West Terrace,&#13;
Hongkong, China&#13;
&#13;
My dear Look:&#13;
&#13;
Thank you for your letter of August 11th which I find waiting for me on my return to Andover from my summer vacation. I have delayed sending you the check to cover the balance of your account until the needed address should have been forthcoming. This address you have now supplied and I am glad to send the check and the account herewith. You will note that several bills cams in after you left. &#13;
&#13;
As I was not able to secure your endorsement of the same it was not to assume that they were correct. I trust that you will find them so. &#13;
