My dear Fayuen: In answer to inquiry about "Nichols" Academy, I learn that the school has gone out of existence. Mr. Knapp told me that he had heard these remarks and a letter received today from a former Principal confirms the report. This makes it necessary for us to look about for a new school, and I must again ask you to come to Andover to discuss the matter with me. Come tomorrow, Thursday, if possible, for I must be away most of Friday and Saturday. Sincerely yours, Principal Dr. Alfred E.

I am unwilling to send you further remittances personally until you have complied with my request and entered school.

In justice to your father and Mr. Tong, I can not sanction your present refusal to take up school work. I beg of you to consider this matter carefully and to discontinue a course which can only distress your parents and friends, and in later years, at least, cause you deep regret.

My dear Sun: You needn't worry longer, for you will find a check enclosed for forty dollars to cover your vacation expenses. It seems to me that this ought to be more than enough for two weeks. It is more than I have been accustomed to give the boys in the past for a similar period, except where they have gone off on long trips. I understood from your earlier letter that you were going to visit a friend. In that case the regular hotel and board bills would naturally be eliminated. In your last letter you speak of having to pay such expenses as [illegible], room-rent, etc. I can’t quite reconcile these two statements. The money has not yet come from China, but in view of the numerous bills which I owe on the accounts of you three boys, I decided to arrange a temporary loan pending the arrival of money from China. This loan I had negotiated and deposited at the bank before your letter arrived. This arrangement will help us all out for the time being, but as it involves a little extra expense, I am particularly anxious that you should not spend any more money now than is absolutely necessary, Please let me know where you are to be during the vacation, so that a letter can be sent you if necessary.

My dear Sun:- Your letter came this morning, and disturbs me greatly. I am glad that you have a friend with whom to pass your vacation, but I cannot comply with your request to send you fifty dollars at this time. The funds sent me from your home when you first came to this country have been practically exhausted. Only a few dollars remain. Months ago I wrote explaining the situation, and I urged both you and your brother to do the same. On my desk are several hundred dollars worth of bills that I have not yet been able to pay because of lack of funds several of those to whom these bills are due have been very seriously inconvenienced by my inability to pay them. Isn’t it possible for you to send a message home for funds, or have you any reason to know that funds are on the way I shall be willing to advance on my own account small amounts as may be necessary to tide you over until money from home arrives. I could not, however, [mention?] fifty dollars for two weeks vacation if the money had to be borrowed outside sources. Please let me hear from you as to what you think the chances are of securing an early remittance from home. I have handled the funds of Chinese students for a number of years now, and have never before been placed in quite so embarrassing a position. I realize that you are in no sense responsible for it, but I need your cooperation in straightening matters out to the best advantage of all concerned.
