May I also use this opportunity to thank you again and most heartily for the unique and highly prized present you were so thoughtful as to send me through your boy. The God of happiness which is now sheltered by my roof, ought to inspire cheerful sentiments in everyone who gazes on his smiling countenance. Certainly I shall always prize and value the gift most highly, both for its own intrinsic worth and for the friendly thought that started it on its long Journey to its new home. Your check for $600 was duly received and acknowledged, at the time. Doubtless the acknowledgment has reached you before this. Unfortunately it was necessary to cover a considerable overdraft with the amount but 1 am urging your hoy to exercise every care to avoid unnecessary expenditures to make the balance last as long as possible. He wished to make a loan to a fellow student now in Boston but 1 explained to him that in view of the small balance remaining in his favor it was not fair to do this and that he must explain to his friend just why. He is naturally so generous that he seems likely to need curbing in matters of this kind rather than in the matter of personal and selfish extravagance. With renewed assurance of my appreciation of your generous thought of me, and with kindest regards, believe me Sincerely and gratefully yours. Admiral H.K. Tu Dr. Alfred E.

I am sorry indeed to learn that I neglected to enclose the statement of expenses with my previous letter. I am having the account struck off at this time and will be sure to see that a copy is sent you with the letter I am now dictating. With my fall approval and at the suggestion of our local doctor, your boy is this week having his tonsils removed and some slight operations performed on his nose. He has been greatly hampered physically, and I am inclined to think intellectually also, by the handicap he has suffered from an unnatural condition of the throat and nose, and, from the experience we have gained from scores of similar cases among our own boys here, I feel sure that the work in question is not only necessary but that it will prove to be of the greatest value to him along both physical and intellectual lines. Through Miss Carter, who has been tutoring the boy recently and who is immensely interested in his welfare, we have been able to arrange to have the work done at a minimum expense. Assuring you of my deepest appreciation of the exceptional by friendly spirit that characterizes your letter and with kindest regards and warmest good will. Believe me. Very sincerely yours.

Just at present he is concerned about his school for next year and is to interview we within a day or two in regard to plans. It is his feeling, and I am inclined to share it, that he is not quite fully prepared to handle the work in so large a school as ours and that he will make better progress in the end to invest the coming year in a small school and come to us later to compete his preparation. This is the plan which many of our Chinese students have pursued in the past, and I cannot help feeling that he will make the best progress in this way.

The boy contracted several bills of this character while he was in Andover, but they never amounted to more than two or three dollars, and as he explained the circumstances to me in person, they seemed to me perfectly proper. In view, however, of the size of Dr. Kober’s bill, I am of the opinion that hereafter Mr. Tu should secure your approval before contracting any more bills of this kind.

This, I hope, will cover your vacation expenses I also hope that we shall hear soon from your father in order that your account may not be too heavily overdrawn. Dr. MacDaniel sent me today a bill of $21.00 from a Dr. Kober, and I have returned it, asking him to secure your O.K. before it is paid by me.

Y. Tu Genesee Wesleyan Seminary Lima, N.Y. My dear Tu: I am sending a check today to Dr. Kober for $21.00 in payment of the treatment he has been giving for your foot. Both president MacDaniel and I feel that you are altogether too inclined to overspend in this line and others, for I can’t for the life of me understand why you should require just this sort of treatment. Of course you should have whatever is necessary for year good health, but it is altogether too easy to believe that one needs more than is necessary. I can't help feeling that this is your tendency at present, for your expenses have been running very high since you went to your present school and a good part of them are not connected with the school at all. At the present time your account is overdrawn three or four hundred dollars, and, if you were handling your own funds, you would be hard up against it at this time. I am willing to make reasonable advances, but I am equally sure that your father does not wish to have you spend as much as you are spending at present, else he would see to it that the necessary funds were provided in advance. I must ask you, therefore, is the absence of explicit instructions from your father to keep these outside expenditures down to the very limit. That's only fair. Faithfully yours, Dr. Alfred E.
