Boston was armed up to the teeth; policemen in countless numbers patrolled the streets. The house of President Stratton of M. I. T. was guarded by four policemen; had any bombs been thrown into that house, I certainly would have heard it, for I slept in the dormitory in a room which is not more than ten feet away from the back yard of the President’s residence. In spite of the heavy precaution taken by the state government small riots and parades took place almost all over Boston and many place in Cambidge [sic]. But when the news arrived that the execution was delayed, things seemed more quiet. Nothing happened today as yet. I just had my old tennis racket restrung and am playing a lot of tennis for recreation. Except for a few rainy days the Boston weather has been fine and it simply invites one to go out of doors and play. I went to the Boston zoo the other day with some of my Chinese friends, and we had an enjoyable afternoon there. The sight of trees made me almost homesick for Amherst; I think I certainly had enough of summer vacation now and am ready to resume working any time. I plan to stay in Boston till the beginning of September, then I shall return to Amherst to room in my former landlady’s house to wait for the college’s reopening. But I shall need a little more money to get through the vacation; so if you please, I would like to have about one hundred dollars. Faithfully yours, Charles Sun Dr. Alfred E.

I am surprise[d] to hear you are at the Lake. The same fellow, whom I mentioned in one of my previous lettets [sic], told me that the water had been raised in the first Lake, and that your cottages are only one hundred yards away from the shore. In that case, I should think the lake would look prettier; since the water is brought up high enough so that the very brim of the lake is lined with trees. And no wonder it is cold in the mountains, for even in Boston the weather has been very chilly. I am planning to return to Amherst soon but not until then shall I beg you to send me more money to cover my college expenses. The sum you have just sent me is sufficient to carry me through the rest of this month and a greater part of the next. The meals in Boston cost almost the same as that of Amherst, but the room is considerably dearer. If it were not for the latter, I could gone through the summer with three hundred dollars. Neither Arthur nor Quincy has yet written us as to their arrival; it requires, I suppose, a few more days yet for their letters to reach Massachusetts.

Noyes - Collision Dear Doctor Stearns: There has been two weeks of regrettable delay on our part in forwarding to you the papers that Mr. Beauchemin and myself promised that you should have in order that you could forward to us checks in settlement of the claims against your ward, Mr. Sun. I was sick for a week after meeting with you in Springfield and then in trying to secure the company’s release from Hartford the original signed release went astray somewhere so that we had to procure a copy. You will now find with this letter release of the Aetna Casualty & Surety Company amounting to $382.93. This is the amount paid by the insurance company to Mr. Noyes under the terms of his policy and by that payment my company was subrogated to the rights of Mr. Noyes to the extent of that payment. You will then find Mr. Noyes’ release in the amount of $100. You will further find release of Heywood Boot and Shoe Company in the amount of $218.75. Will you please draw three separate checks as follows, one to the order of the Aetna Casualty and Surety Company $382.93; one to the order of Gordon A. Noyes $100., and one to the order of the Aetna Casualty & Surety Company in the amount of $218.75. I neglected to state above that when my company paid the Heywood Boot and Shoe Company for the claim that they made against Mr. Noyes we took subrogation of their rights against Mr. Sun. The three releases inclosed, however, are adequate protection to you in making the payments outlined above. I trust that the matter can now be closed up without any further delay.

Stearns, December 7, 1932 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Charlie Sun to Dr. Alfred E. Stearns, December 7, 1932 Relation A related resource Service de Protocole, Wai Chiao Pu, Nanking, December 17, 1932. Dear Dr. Stearns; Your most kindly letter reached me a long time ago, but between then and now many things happened which had kept me pretty busy. A summary of my personal march of events will perhaps give you an idea of what had passed since I wrote you last. After a month’s stay in Shanghai last June, I went back to Tientsin to my old home town for the first time after many years. There I lived three happy months with my parents. But the question of getting a job presented itself to me, and after many attempts and through the good offices of my former colleague in the Chinese Legation at London, I was successful in obtaining a position in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as stated above. So at the end of September, after having attended Tommie's marriage in Tientsin, I sailed south for Shanghai, where I was put up at Arthur’s house. Here something very sad happened; namely the death of my brother-in-law, Mary’s husband, to Whom she was married in the previous summer just after my landing in Shanghai and at whose wedding I acted as the bestman. I need not trouble you with the details of his illlness that led to his sudden and tragic death, but suffice to say that he had an acute internal trouble, who was discovered too late for operation. He died after having been vainly operated on. Mary was in a state of collapse and my poor Dad was not far from been distracted by the blow. It happened that Mary's husband had not immediate relatives in Shanghai at the time of his death. Mary and Father were both disqualified for doing any real work, and as luck would have it, Arthur was taken ill at this juncture as well as one of his babies, which kept my sister-in-law at home to attend the sick ones. That left my kid sister and myself as the only ones who might give some help, and believe me, I had a hard time; because besides attending to the troublesome matters of a Chinese funeral, with which I was not at all farmiliar, I had to at the same time do my best to cheer everyone up, but chiefly Mary and my Dad. I had never had such a difficult time in my life, and my final examinations at Phillips were nothing compared with this. Finally, however, the mother and brother of the deceased arrived from Peiping and with the help of many kind friends, we were able to have the body ready for shipment to the north for burial. Mary went back with the body to Tientsin, where she now is, after having seen the burial. Poor Mary, what is she going to do! Only four months married and both of them so young. Dr. Stearns, it was certainly hard for me, who having not long been the bestman at their wedding to act not many months later as the bearer of the coffin of one of them. I hope you will write to Mary and give her a word of encouragement. You may reach her by addressing your letter to me. After this tragic event in Shanghai I came to Nanking around the sixth of December and went immediately to work at the Ministry. My job, as the name of the Service indicated, consisted of protocols matters which includes a variety of things such as preparing formal banquets, meeting foreign diplomatic or prominent visiters to our capital, drafting messages of felicitation and condolence, etc; , etc. The work is fairly interesting and suits me, because it does not require much knowledge of Chinese. But I am not very satisfied with it in so much as it is a Government job, for which I have a strong dislike. Had it not been my father's repeated urging, I would not have re-entered government service. But to please him I am putting up with it, at least for the present. I hope some day, however, I shall be able to find something elsewhere. As you will be spending Christmas in Europe, I wish to give you my greetings for the Season and best wishes for a good rest and trip around the Continent. It is too bad that you cannot manage to visit us in China, for I am sure that if you do, there are more many persons who will be ready to welcome old Dr; Stearns to their home land. Tommy is now working at the Kailan Mining Administration in Tongshan near Tientsin; Arthur is still with the Shanghai Municipal Government; Frank is the sales manager of the China Radio Company at Tientsin; Quincy, from whom I have not heard since my return, is according to his father teaching at the Hangchow University at the City of Hangchow; Charlie Tsai I am sorry to say is not doing so well. He is in Tientsin working in the Railway office, but I fear he does not take his work seriously. The Yuan Brothers, William and Henry, their nephew Tommy, and Admiral Tu’s son, who had such a hard time at Phillips are all in Tientsin. William is connected with a cement factory; Henry is doing well at the Tientsin head office of the Kailan Mining Administration. Tommy Yuan is another rascal; he is doing nothing. I met Tu at a musical recital I attended last summer when I was in Tientsin, but I did not get to know what he is doing. Oh, by the way, I must not forget Dick Tseng. I heard he is now also married and is working with the British American Tobacco Company of China. His exact location is not known to me. Little Chan of Canton, whom although I have not seen for years, is, I am told, working in a Bank at Hongkong. He must be doing well too. This in short is all the P.A. news from China that I know of. I shall be glad to hear from you what is going on in Andover.
