&#13;
Your fine letter is before me. Welcome to the U.S.A.! I had read in the paper of your presence in this country as Head of the Chinese Delegation to the Conference, and it did not take me long to spread the good news among the Chinese boys here. Needless to say, they share my enthusiastic hope that we are going to get a glimpse of you before you return. Do come up and see us. Just bear in mind that the latch string at my house is always out for you and that the rest and relaxation you will doubtless need after the strenuous days of the Conference can be had up here in the quiet of Andover Hill to probably as good an advantage as anywhere else. Nothing would please me better than to have you camp with me for a few days anyway. Of course if we can see you earlier so much the better.&#13;
&#13;
With kindest personal regards in which all would join if they knew of my writing, believe me always&#13;
&#13;
Very sincerely yours, </text>

                <text>My dear Mr. Liang: &#13;
&#13;
It was mighty nice of you to send me the New Year's greeting which reached me in the form of our little card only a day or two ago. China seems a bit nearer to us in these later days than it did in times of old and we have followed with interest and some anxiety the constant and to us almost undecipherable shiftings in the political scenery of your big country. I do hope that out of all this turmoil will come stability and new strength and dignity to the nation. &#13;
&#13;
We are passing through a typical New England winter now, a bit delayed in coming but full of snap and snow now that is here. My Chinese wards are all in good health and spirits and will return I hope to their home land when the proper time comes better qualified because of the American life and work to aid in solving the big problems that confront you. &#13;
&#13;
My heartiest greetings and all good wishes to you and yours for the new year. Believe me.&#13;
&#13;
Ever sincerely yours, </text>
