Liang wrote me early in the summer asking if I would be willing to act as guardian for Tommy and his sister Grace, and later suggested that Tommy round out his secondary education at the Technical High School in this city, where in the past a half dozen boys, young friends or relatives of Liang and Tong Shiu Yi, over whom my father and I exercised a guardianship, had received their education,-and whence they had gone to various technical schools and colleges. So, I took no steps toward placing Tommy anywhere else until it appeared, after talking with the Principal of the school here and watching his career for a couple of weeks, that a prep school was the place for him. I knew Liang’s strong predilection for Andover and wrote accordingly, and feeding that Andover might be unable to take him, also asked my son-in-law, Myron Williams, who is one of the instructors at Exeter, if it could be arranged for Tommy's reception there, in case he could not go to Andover. Hence the situation. As you can readily understand, I appreciate most fully your very generous offer and in spite of the fact that it might be unfortunate to unsettle Tommy's career by a shift at this time or in the near future, the unusual advantages of such a change through your offer, are so evident that my only hesitation is on account of the financial question involved. While Liang is relatively wealthy, he has I know, a large demand upon his exchequer, not only for his own family, but through his feeling, common to all the Chinese of his age and station, of responsibility toward many others not so fortunate, related in some way to him, and unless some arrangement could be made with Dr. Perry, whereby his fees already paid and presumably to be paid could be rebated, I should hesitate to make the change this school year. If, however, you think this can be done, I most heartily approve of it. Let me thank you again for writing so fully in the matter. Liang and his cousin Tong came to my father in the seventies; we grew up together as youngsters during the period that they were here and Liang has stayed with me more or less on his later visits to this country, so that I am delighted to feel that his youngest child may have the opportunity of getting his schooling with you and the more keenly so if he may have the benefit of your personal influence. Yours very truly, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns George C.

T. Liang) has just come here from China and my friend wishes him, if possible, to go to Cornell as soon as he is able to do so. My friend, Liang Yu Ho, spent a day or two in Andover, I believe, a year or two ago where some of his young student friends were and perhaps are now. Thomas Liang, the boy in question, arrived here too late to enter by examination any of the preparatory schools and after talking with my friend Mr. Warner, Pincipal [sic]of the Technical High School, here, he has started in tentatively. It is my feeling, however, that he may be able make more rapid progress in a preparatory school and I am writing to ask whether or not you can take him and if so, what the over all expense approximately will be. I am enclosing with this, copy of a letter which Mr. Warner has just handed me upon which my only criticism is, that I doubt whether he will need as long a preparation of French and mathematics as Warner seems to think, for the boy is bright and a worker. I shall be very grateful to you for such information or advice as you can give me. Yours very truly, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns George C.

Tommy appears to me the most temperamental of all the boys who have been with us in the last dozen years and while I have no doubt that it is perfectly true that he would in a week or more, have become acclimated to Andover, and agree with you that this spasm of homesickness was a temporary one, I think probably it is just as well that he has gone back. For purely personal reasons, I had hoped he might be with you. One of them was purely selfish and the other because of your personal intimacy with Liang. As a matter of discipline however; I am inclined to think that for the next six months Exeter on the whole will be good for him. He is evidently quite impressionable,- I might almost say credulous, and has been writing to me glowing accounts of various colleges and universities, all the way from New York City to Kansas, with which he has been corresponding, that are eager to accept him at once as an enrolled student. So, I think his best job is to stay where he is and dig for a time. I thoroughly appreciate your interest in the matter and am very grateful for it and I know Liang will feel so too, and I sincerely hope that we may some time have the opportunity of talking over, not only Tommie’s future prospects, but the whole matter of China’s students, for I am thoroughly convinced that the effects of this American education will be even more of a factor in China’s future than yet appears.

Alfred was at the Stearns School last year and the year before, and, as you probably know, took the examinations for the lower middle year at Phillips, failing them rather badly. Dr. Stearns suggested that in view of his examination papers you would probably be best able to tell what he should work at and to send him the right books if any are necessary. Hoping that this will not put you to too great inconvenience, I am. Sincerely yours, Assistant to the Headmaster (Lynde) George K.
