Bateman 7th South Dearborn St. My dear Bateman: I greatly appreciate yaw letter of September 27 and the pains you have taken to try to locate Miss Tsai’s missing suitcase. On receipt of your letter I conferred Miss Tsai at once, and she is mots emphatic in stating that there were nine pieces of baggage altogether,that belonged to the party staying at the Drake, she lists them as follows: Her brother Alfred: two nieces, one travelling bag and one suitcase Mr. Lieu: two pieces, one a bag and one a suitcase Miss Joan (I forget the last name): two pieces, one bag and one suitcase Helen herself: three pieces, two bags and one suitcase She tells me that the suitcase was brown leather. Miss Tsai is very emphatic in her conviction that there were nine rather than eight pieces involved, and this would tend to show, as suggested by you, that the less mast have occurred at the hotel rather than at the station or en route. For this reason I am still hopeful that the missing article may be found. Miss Tsai adds that the check-up on the t rain showed eight pieces and not seven. Again my thanks for your friendly and painstaking effort in behalf of this interesting youngster, who evidently is less concerned ever the loss than her father is probably likely to be when he seeks to repair it.

Having dealt with Chinese students for the past fifteen or twenty years, I think I know pretty clearly what the parents of these boys desires, and I can assure you that thei cases will be given my most careful and earnest consideration. The wishes will be carried out to the fullest possible extent. I hope to be able to take care of two or three of the youngsters in my own family circle, but you may rest assured that the other members of the group will not be left to shift for themselves. They will receive as much as attention and thought would my own children. I am deep by sensible of the responsibility that rests upon me in view of the confidence and trust which the parents of these children have so generously placed in me; and I shall not betray that trust if it is humanly possible to guard against such a catastrophe.

Chan tells me that he is hoping to enter Hamilton College next fall and has asked me to write you a word in his behalf. This I am glad to do. Chan has been with us for a couple of years and is a pretty likable sort of a boy. He has lived up to the school requirements in a steady and responsible way, as most of these Chinese lads do. He has not the ability of Yuan who is now with you, nor indeed the same kind of a background, for he is a Hongkonger and doubtless a Cantonese. As a rule these fellows do not prove nearly so good timber as their northern brethren though there are exceptions at times, and our senior Latin prize was carried off by one of them only a few years ago.

My dear Mr. Chang: Your most interesting letter has just reached me; and I cannot refrain from answering it at once, telling you how pleased I am to know that you have not forgotten me. It has been a long time since I have heard from you; but doubtless that is as much my fault as yours. I have thought of you frequently, however, and have often wondered how you were getting along. Indeed I have had it on my mind for some time to drop you a note to remind you of my existence, and also to refresh your memory to the extent of emphasizing again ay hope that you will always feel that my home is open to you;and that a visit from you at any time would be most welcome. I am keeping house this year, although by myself; and hence visitors are more than ever welcome. run out some Saturday and spend the Sunday with me? Your reports from the other Chinese beys are most interesting; and I shall be glad indeed of the chance to talk over the different boys with you in person. Only yesterday I had a long letter from Luk, one of our old boys who has been back in China as an engineer for several years. He keeps in touch with me; and I can’t tell you how much I value his letters, and the news they give me of Luk’s doings. Hsieh has been very good in keeping us posted about his work at Wisconsin. Yes, it certainly does look as if China were swinging back into a monarchy; but I agree with you that a constitutional monarchy is much better than a democracy which is a democracy only in name. From my own knowledge of China and Chinese affairs, as well as the opinion so often expressed to me by the maturer men of my acquaintance in China, I cannot help feeling that the proposal step will not prove to be a backward step after all. As you say, the moment China is ready for a republic, and really desires it, noting can prevent her from having it. Again assuring you of my deep interest in your work, and my desire to continue and strengthen the friendship so pleasantly formed last year, believe me, with kindest personal regards, Yours very sincerely, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns Fu Yin Chang
