Charlie has also written me, enclosing the copy of your letter to me which you sent to him. He seems very much pleased at the prospect, and it seem to me, as an outsider, that the opportunity and experience involved should prove of great value to Charlie in the end. I have already sent Charlie funds to provide for his summer work at Columbia and for the necessary living expenses. I am writing him again this morning, and will be ready to meet him at any time and discuss his further plans. As you probably know, he is taking some shorthand and typewriting work this summer, and I have emphasized in my letter to him the importance of those in view of the special work which he will carry in connection with Dr. Tong Shao Yi's mission. I have heard so much of Dr. Tong in the past that I trust I may have the opportunity of meeting him when he is in this country. It will also be a pleasure to me to aid him and his friends in any way I can while they are in America. With warm personal regards, believe me always Very sincerely yours, C.Y.Sun Dr. Alfred E.

Naturally I am dreadfully distressed to learn of your father-in-law's serious illness, though your second note with its reassurances brought much relief. I passed the good word along at once to the children who had heard of their father's illness, and were greatly disturbed. I assured them further that I felt confident that if there had been any further developments in the case that were unsatisfactory, they would have received some later word from home, and that no news could therefore be fairly regarded as good news. I hope that this judgment was correct. I had already acknowledged the receipt of the telegraphic remittance of four thousand dollars for the accounts of the three children. Doubtless my letter will have been received by this time. All three of the children seem to be in good health and the boys are doing steady and high grade work. Mary seems to find continued difficulty in her studies, though I am very much hoping that a better report will come in before the end of the year when she will have had a chance to become thoroughly familiar with the new work and the character of the demands it makes upon her. Please give my warmest and friendliest greetings and good wishes to your father-in-law. I shall look forward eagerly to some further and I earnestly hope more encouraging word of his improvement and ultimate restoration to full health and vigor. Very sincerely yours, Dr. Alfred E.

Whether the New York plan is altogether wise or not, I am not in a position to say. That must be determined by yourself and the way you take hold of the job there and resist or give in to the distracting influences that are invariably found in a big city. The final judgment, therefore, will have to be left until fall. As to the expense involved, it seems to me to be pretty heavy. If your money is spent wisely, however, I am not averse to allowing you to meet all legitimate charges. On the other hand. I think it better to send the total sum in installments rather than in one lump. This will give you a chance to figure a little more closely what you are spending and how you are coming out. I am sending herewith, therefore, a check for three hundred dollars to help you close up the year at Middlebury and to take care of the opening expenses of the summer. With all best wishes, believe me Very sincerely yours. AES/C Enol, (check) Dr. Alfred E.

It is indeed most gratifying to learn how well the boys are getting along. I have had some long letters with Charlie. It seems I gave him some ground for encouragement In his desire to return to China, but this I really did not mean to without he first took up some special line of study for say a degree in law or some special branch. This might mean a postgraduate course at Harvard, Yale or some other University, but it would be well worth it and would mean a lot to him on his return here. I hope it may be possible for you to use your influence with Charlie towards this reasonable and natural completion of his years of study and training. I feel, my dear Dr. Stearns, that I am doing you a great injustice in asking you to further assist with Mary, for she has given you much worry and care. Every time I think of it I feel guilty in that I am abusing your kindness and generosity, but I am so far away that it seems hopeless for me to succeed in making right decisions. It would mean much to me and to my family if the report you are good enough to say you will send me before the end of the year tells of improvement in the subjects Mary has hitherto not made much of. Your letter encouraged me to hope for this, and I have just received a letter from an entire stranger which adds to my hope that she will be able to successfully complete her work. I take the liberty of sending you a copy of this letter. My health has made it necessary for me to take a change in a trip to the south for a month or two, and I hope I shall soon be restored to health and vigour again. I wish again to thank you for your letter, and although writing about it seems at times formal, yet I do appreciate all your great kindness and thought for the children, given in no limited, measure and for which I am ever deeply grateful. With very best wishes, Yours very sincerely, My dear Mr. Sun, During a recent illness I was entirely charmed by my nurse who is your very attractive daughter. She is the best and sincerest nurse that I have ever had or have ever known. Although I know it is not usual to write to a stranger I thought your wife and you would like to know how well she is doing how the outsides feel about her. We are very proud to have her with us in America and hope she enjoys being with us as much as we enjoy having her, I trust that this letter will reach you though I am not sure of your address and didn't care to ask Miss Sun for it. With best wishes for you and your family I am Yours very sincerely, (Miss) C. Van Cleve C.Y.Sun Dr. Alfred E.

I suggested that he might send you an extra copy of this letter with a view to your sending it on to Charlie with a covering letter from you. I am sure if you did this that it would be of great help to the young man to get over his disappointment and at the same time encourage him to carry on with his studies in view of the London position. We are in the midst of our work here for the present famine and our campaign has so far resulted in raising over $350,000- While conditions are somewhat improved in the famine areas there is still a great need in some of the provinces, and this need will continue right through the winter. In all this big effort for the famine sufferers Mr. Sun has been as always a tower of strength, and has given himself freely to this service and does more than his share of work in all our efforts at relief. With kind regards and best wishes for you in all your work, believe me, Yours sincerely, P.S. Mr. Sun is not very well and certainly looks tired & worn out. He mentioned that he wanted to write Charlie himself, but in case he does not do so feeling as he is now, the letter from you to Charlie would be of great help. Dr. Alfred E. Stearns William E.
