                <text>Dear Dr. Stearns:&#13;
&#13;
Since I wrote you on 28th instant as per copy enclosed, Mr. M. T. Liang has shown me your most obliging letter of 21st ultimo relative to my son, Chang Shao Ling. (This is the Chinese way of writing his name, Chang being his family name and Shao-ling, his personal name. If written in your way, it should be Shao-ling Chang or S. L. Chang. As he will be shortly among the American boys, he is now named Harvey S. L. Chang. Please also note that my name, if written in your way. should be Pah-lung Chang or P. L. Chang. &#13;
&#13;
You have said that in spite of many earlier applications fay admittance, you would admit Harvey S. L. Chang to your esteemed school and that in view of hie age and is consideration of his being a stranger is your country on his first arrival, you would take him into your own house Where he can learn the good manners and will be benefited by the American home culture, more quickly than elsewhere. Words cannot express how grateful I am to you for your taking such a keen interest in the welfare of this youngster. I only hope that he will prove himself to be worthy ward of yours.&#13;
&#13;
The Russo-Asiatic Bank Tientsin has already written to the first Rational Bank of Boston, Boston, requesting them to advise and pay your good self one thousand dollars which remittance is to defray all expenses of my boy under your charge.&#13;
&#13;
Thanking you very much for all your kindness, and tendering you my sincere good wishes,&#13;
&#13;
I beg to be,&#13;
&#13;
Yours very truly.&#13;

Dear Dr. Stearns,&#13;
&#13;
I regret very much to inform you that my son, Harvey S. L. Chang, who was to be admitted to your esteemed school, died in Shanghai on 16th. instant through typhoid.&#13;
&#13;
All your kind promises to bring him under your care would not be realised but I feel just as grateful to you as if you have done so. With regard to my deposit of $ 1,000 which I think you have already received from the First national Bank of Boston, Boston, please hold the money to my credit until I write you later to transfer it in my favour of some of the boys already in your place.&#13;
&#13;
Kindest regards,&#13;
&#13;
Yours sincerely.&#13;

                <text>Tientsin, 28th July, 1920&#13;
Dr. Alfred Stearn,&#13;
Phillips Academy,&#13;
Andover, Mass U. S. A.&#13;
&#13;
Dear Dr. Stearns,&#13;
&#13;
My friend Mr. M. T. Liang wrote about two months ago requesting you to be the guardian of my boy, Chang Shao Ling, now named Harvey S. L. Chang whose photo was sent you in the same cover, I have not as yet had the pleasure of hearing from you that you would do me the favour to undertake the guardianship, but Mr. Liang assures me that as you are always interested in the good training and fine education of Chinese boys, your affirmative reply is on way coming here. It is needless to say how I felt satisfied and appreciated by my friend’s recommendation to place the boy entirely in charge of you, a learned and virtuous gentleman who will take a fatherly interest in this youngster. &#13;
&#13;
Harvey was 15 years of age last month and has just finished his freshman year in Tsing-hua College, Peking. I think he has to study for some three years in your school before he will be qualified to join a College in America to pursue along a special profession. At present he has some inclination to learn civil engineering but he may change his mind later on. In course of time you will be a better judge than he or myself as to when he may be admitted to a College and what profession would fit him best. &#13;
&#13;
The following are the books which he has studied or is studying:* Nesfield’s English Grammar Series (1, 2, A, 4) &#13;
Brewer's Oral English&#13;
Elson's Grammar School Reader (Book 4)&#13;
Lamb's Tales from Shakespeare Stevenson's Treasure Island&#13;
T. A* Quiller-Couch's Historical Tales from Shakspeare&#13;
Hall and Knight's Elementary Algebra&#13;
Wentworth's Elementary Algebra&#13;
Barnard's A Hew Geometry for Schools&#13;
Steele’s Popular Physics&#13;
Stone Hillis' Plane Geometry&#13;
Pease's General Science&#13;
Renouf's General History&#13;
Eraser and Squair's Abridged French Grammar&#13;
Blouet's Intermediate French&#13;
Wood-Working&#13;
&#13;
Apart from useful knowledge and learning to be acquired in a school it is essential that he should be given a training in high morals and ethics that he may become a man of fine charter. If you agree with me that he will learn more about all these in a good Christian family than in the dormitory, please let him board and lodge in a home which you will kindly select for him, I have requested Mr. F. M. Pyke of the Methodist Mission to call on you while he is spending his summer vacation in Massachusetts, to acquaint you with my desire in this respect. He may make some recommendation and suggestion but nothing is final without your approval,&#13;
&#13;
Harvey has not been baptized but I feel inclined to think that he believes in Christianity, I have given him freedom to choose a religion provided he would be sincere in what he believes.  Eventually he may be a Protestant. &#13;
&#13;
I am remitting to you through First National Bank of Boston, Boston, $1,OOO* and beginning from 1921 a remittance of $750.- will be sent you through the same Bank every six months. I suppose this will be sufficient to cover all expenses including clothing etc and an allowance to Harvey as petty cash. The boy has no choice in the matter of buying necessaries and has to be satisfied with whatever allowance you may give him. Kindly see that he will practice economy and will not spend more than he ought to. &#13;
&#13;
My boy will leave from Shanghai on or about 23rd August by s/s "NANKING". The steamer may be due at San Francisco on 15th September. After stopping at the latter port for two or three days he will take train to Chicago and thence to Boston where a friend in Y.M.C.A will meet him and see that he will go safely to Andover. &#13;
&#13;
Now, Dr. Stearns, I hope I am not intruding when I write you such a long letter. My next will be handed you by my boy personally. I therefore close this, adding that I feel most grateful to you for all the trouble you will take in charge of my boy. &#13;
&#13;
Kindest regards.&#13;
&#13;
Yours sincerely,&#13;
