My dear Seetoo:-
Many thanks for your letter received this morning. I am sorry to learn that we are not likely to have you with us next year, but i can readily understand why you feel the necessity of hastening your admission to college. May you be successful in getting into the Institute, and successful also in securing the Government aid you desire. I shall be very glad to write the Institute in your behalf, and am forwarding today a statement covering the work which you have had here, and certifying to your good character., It is our custom to send statements of this kind direct to the secretary of the institution concerned.
I am interested to learn that Mr. Yeh is planning to enter Phillips this fall. I shall be glad to meet him and Mr. Chen when they came to Andover this week.
With very good wish to you, and assuring you of my hearty and continued interest in your work and progress, believe me
Very sincerely yours,

My dear Sir:-
Allow me to thank you for your kind letter of the 5th inst., received this morning. I am very glad to learn that you are willing to interest yourself in behalf of Mr. Seetoo. I enclose a record of the boy's work with us to date. While I know that it is not customary to extend government aid to preparatory-school pupils, I know that there have been cases where this has been done, and I am sure that none of the Chinese boys whom it has been my pleasure to know have more fully proved themselves deserving of this help than has Mr. Seetoo.
Very sincerely yours,
Dr. Alfred E. Stearns

My dear Sir:
Mr. Fucheng Seetoo, of Shanghai, China at present a student here in Phillips Academy has asked me to write you a word in his behalf. As I understand, Mr. Seetoo hopes to secure governmental assistance in the further pursuit of his American education. I trust that he will be successful in this, for in my judgment he is most worthy of assistance of this kind.
Mr. Seetoo came to us in the fall of 1906. He did good work in his studies from the start, improving very noticeably as he went on. This year his school work has been even better than before, and some of this teachers consider him one of the brightest of the Chinese boys we have had here, if not one of the brightest minds they have come in contact with in the class-room. Besides being actually very bright as a student, Mr. Seetoo has always been faithful and persevering in his work, and most amenable to our regulations and any suggestions that have been made.
Near the close of the last school year the boy's father lost his money, and it was a question whether the boy himself would be able to continue his studies here. Our Faculty felt so strongly that he ought not to give up his education and this ability and prospects were unusual, that [illegible]
If you can see your way to make the financial problem easier for this boy, I am sure that he will amply repay any confidence placed in him, or any funds invested by the government in his behalf. If I can at any time furnish you more detailed information, I shall be very glad to hear from you.
Very truly yours,
Creator

My dear Seetoo:
Thank you for your good letter. So you are once more turning towards home. I wish I were going with you on the trip for another view of your interesting country. I imagine, though, that conditions there must be a bit strained at present in view of the Japanese tangle. We are counting on some of you fellows in whose ability and judgment we have such high confidence to aid greatly in the final just settlement of this and other troubles which confront your country today. Be sure to let me hear from you now and then, for I shall always be deeply interested in you and your progress.
I enclose a statement which I hope will prove of value to you. If at any time I can render further aid to you don’t hesitate to call on me freely.
With all best wishes, believe me,
Very sincerely yours,
Principal.
Enclosure.
Dr. Alfred E. Stearns

My dear Seetoo:
Thank you for your most delightful letter which you were good enough to send me from San Francisco. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed it, and how deeply I appreciate the good will which prompted it. If I have been of any service to you whatever during your stay in America I am sincerely grateful. It certainly is a pleasure to be able to do anything for boys who entertain such high ideals as you do, and who have striven so earnestly and well to make the best of their lives and the opportunities offered them. I wish for you continued success and prosperity on your return to your own country. I trust that you may be able to contribute much towards the solution of the hard problems which now seem to confront your nation.
Whenever you feel disposed to write me I shall be delighted to hear from you, and to learn at first hand how things are going in China, and what your own prospects are for the future.
With all best wishes, believe me,
Very sincerely yours,

To whom it may concern:
Mr. Fucheng Seetoo was a student at Phillips Academy, Andover, Massachusetts, from September, 1906, to June, 1908. He left the school to enter the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he has since been pursuing with success his more advanced studies. Mr. Seetoo made an exceptionally fine record at Andover. Not only was his scholarship of a very high order, but he was faithful and dependable to an unusual degree. His habits were of the best, and his character clear and sound. I have every confidence in Mr. Seetoo and fully expect him to justify by his later career the high hopes which his American friends and instructors entertain for him.
Principal.

My dear Mr. Cutler:-
Fucheng Seetoo, of whom you inquire, has been a student here during the past year. He is one of the boys brought over from China by Dr. Tenney, and is an excellent fellow. So far as I know him, his character is above reproach, and he gives promise of becoming a really brilliant scholar. Seetoo was here with plenty of funds at his disposal. Recently his father lost all his property in a typhoon which devastated the Chinese coast, and the boy is now very much reduced in his circumstances and obliged to cast in his lot with boys of limited means. He plans to return to us next fall as a scholarship student, and in view of the splendid record he has made this year, we are very glad to receive him on that basis. Like most of these Chinese boys, Seetoo is anxious to make his vacations count, and hence seeks the advantages offered at Northfield for the summer months. I am sure that you will find him a most reliable and attractive boy.
Sincerely yours,
Creator
