Dr. Alfred E. Stearns,&#13;
Andover, Mass.&#13;
&#13;
My dear Dr. Stearns: —&#13;
&#13;
I am sending you, herewith, bill for the balance of Tsai's tuition together with the few incidental expenses I find charged to his account.&#13;
&#13;
The boy is in excellent health and is working splendidly. He is certainly a fine lad and we are all very fond of him. The following reports from his various tutors may be of interest to you.&#13;
&#13;
French.(Mr. Johnstone)."Doing very good work. Standing at midterm about C plus. He has more than ordinary ability and his prospects are very good."&#13;
&#13;
Algebra.(Mr. Spratt)." Good ability. Effort good. Progress &#13;
satisfactory. Will do good work at Andover in Algebra."&#13;
&#13;
English and Composition.(Mr. Shepard).” Tsai is getting a good grasp of English grammar and can read English unusually well. He should be able to pass the entrance examination without difficulty.&#13;
&#13;
I sincerely hope you are having a pleasant and restful vacation and wish that on your way buck to Massachusetts, you might circle round through the mountains and spend a few days with us at camp. &#13;
&#13;
Very truly yours</text>

&#13;
My dear Dr. Stearns:—&#13;
&#13;
I am enclosing, herewith, bill for the first half of Tsai’s tuition.&#13;
The boy is in excellent health, is working faithfully and his three tutors are very well pleased with the results to date. He is a very likeable boy and seems to be businesslike and capable. It is surprising to all of us that he could, in such a short time, understand English so well.&#13;
&#13;
No word has come from Yung and I do not see how we can hold the place any longer for him.&#13;
&#13;
With all good wishes, I remain&#13;
&#13;
Very truly yours</text>

This is to acknowledge receipt of your check for $241.33 recently received.&#13;
&#13;
As for the charge for the season, our rate is the same this year as last, $400. In 1916 the charge was $350.00 but that was the last year that we were able to run for that price. You are certainly right in your allusion to high prices which refuse to come down. I shall be surprised if we are not forced, when our books are balanced at the close of this season, to make a further increase in rates. With the salary roll of nearly $9000.00, some close figuring is necessary in order to any more than pay the interest on our investment.&#13;
&#13;
You will be glad to know that Tsai continues to do good work and was on the camp Honor Roll again last week.&#13;
&#13;
With kindest regards, I remain&#13;
&#13;
Sincerely yours&#13;

&#13;
My dear Dr. Stearns:&#13;
&#13;
I am sending you herewith bill for tuition and incidentals for Tsai.&#13;
&#13;
I am pleased to inform you that “Charlie” is in good physical condition and has had a good summer. He has made commendable progress in Ancient History, Plane Geometry, and English. As has always been the case, his work is irregular and he has no more than an even chance with his examinations. If he is to take college examinations this fall, he should continue to work until the time of those examinations. If he does this, his chances will be very much improved. Personally I am very fond of the boy and feel that he is developing rapidly and should make a fine man. He has been a real addition to the camp.&#13;
&#13;
I hope the summer has been a pleasant and restful one for you.&#13;
&#13;
Very truly yours&#13;

                <text>My dear Dr. Stearns:&#13;
&#13;
My Father-in-law asked me to own receipt of your kind letter dated Dec. 13th for which he is so highly pleased and grateful. He feels guilty having delayed his reply so long and yet not been able to do so himself in person. Ever since the last operation on his carbuncle which was a very serious one, the size of it was about seven or eight inches in diameter. He has never been able to regain his usual spirit, energy and strength. He therefore feels awfully weak and can not do any work, consequently our doctor orders him not to work at all if possible, so we are keeping back piles and piles of correspondences from him. On top of the above said condition of his health, it was most unfortunate to state that on the 12th evening he had a sudden attack of a very high fever, which rendered him unconscious and delirious for about 24 hours. He is now lying in bed a thoroughly sick man, but happily his mind is gradually getting clearer. We do not know how long he will be recovered to his usual health. He has now authourized [sic] me to answer his correspondence, I therefore take the liberty to do so.&#13;
&#13;
May I through this letter acknowledge receipt of a letter written by your secretary with Charlie, Tommy and Mary’s accounts for which my Father-in-law wishes to express his thanks.&#13;
&#13;
I beg to inform you that my Father-in-law has ordered a telegraphic remittance of G$4,000,00 for account of Mary, Tommy, and Charlie through the London office of the National City Bank of New York, which I hope it has reached you by now.&#13;
&#13;
With very best wishes&#13;
&#13;
Yours very sincerely</text>
