Stearns, February 5, 1930 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Charles Sun, London, to Alfred E. Stearns, February 5, 1930 Relation A related resource Dear Dr. Stearns; Two days ago I received a most surprising cable message from my father, giving his consent to my wish to stop studying in London. The wire read as follows: "Agree you discontinue further study - father.” Although I have written to my father two rather "strong" letters, I doubt very much whether the result could have been so good and immediate, had not you lent me your help by writing him yourself. If indeed you have, I wish to express to you, sir, my profoundest gratitude for your kindness. If, however, you have not yet done so, I would beg you not to go into the trouble, as I would not for the world to have a repetition of "Mary's Case”, which caused some misunderstanding on my father's part toward your most sensible advice. But I want to thank you just the same. You have been always very generous in helping me, something, which I will not forget as long as I live. You know, Sir, due to my father’s former persistent attitude and to other disappointments which I met before leaving the States, my first two months in England were extremely miserable. Had not my father made the decision he did, I would have been driven to extreme measures, which I am glad has been avoided by his recent cable. I am beginning now to look forward to my days here in London with more enthusiasm, which will perhaps make my stay abroad seem shorter. I hope to be able to go home in two years.

How I would have loved to have you with me here in Andover on that day, for my own Charlie and I had a rather quiet and somewhat lonely time together and would have welcomed heartily an old friend like you. Those were good days, weren’t they, when we had the big family at the Samaritan House and plunged head over heels into the job of making Christmas a truly merry time and one to be remembered with pleasure. I am sending only a hasty note this morning to wish you a truly happy and worth while New Year. I am glad to note also that the money reached you safely and has been wisely deposited. Only yesterday your wholly unexpected and most generous Christmas present reached me. Again my thanks, therefore, and most hearty ones. I shall think of you and with friendliest and kindest thoughts whenever I look on your gift. which I am sure will be often.

Stearns, December 24, 1929 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Charles Sun, London, to Alfred E. Stearns, December 24, 1929 Relation A related resource Dear Dr. Stearns; I am writing you, Sir, on Christmas Eve all alone in an apartment house in the heart of old London. Two secreatries [sic] of the Legation had dinner with me in a Chinese restaurant; we had each a glass of wine for good cheer on the Happy Season. They then came to my place for a cup of tea, but they are gone now and I am spending the rest of my Christmas Eve by myself. As I am writing, a choir of men and women is singing Christmas corals [sic] immediately below my window. Really I never thought that songs could be so beautiful. As their voices floated through my room, my eyes were wet with involuntary tears, and I was just bearly [sic] able to keep from crying. I don’t know why I should feel so; may be it is the rememberance of the jolly days which I spent under your kind roof on similar occasions years ago or it may be the recollection of my happy days in general in America. At any rate, those songs certainly gripped me in a funny and queer way. Miss Clemons was kind enough to call me up yesterday upon her arrival in London. Due to previous appointment that noon I was very sorry for not being able to have lunch with her as she wished. But we have arranged to have supper on the evening of the 27th when she returns from the country, where she is visiting Miss Majorie. This morning she sent me a Christmas greeting by wire, which I promptly replied. I am looking forward with pleasure to seeing her; it will be so good to see one of my old friends from America! Minister Sze has been kind enough to write me a letter of introduction to the Manager of the Equitable Trust Company of New York, thus enabling me to deposit my money ($3,500), which you kindly sent me, in some safe place. This amount had been converted into Sterling at the. rate of 4.88-15/16, producing 715. 16. 9 pounds, which sum they have applied for me as follows: 315.16.9. $l,500) have been placed to the credit of a current account in my name, and provided the same do not fall below 100 pounds, they will allow me interest at the rate of per annum subject to change according to monetary conditions prevailing here. 400. 0 0. ($2,000 approximately) have been credited to a fixed deposit account for a period of three months from Dec. 20th, 1929 to 20th March, 1930, at the rate of interest of 4% per annum. So far I have not touched either deposit excpet [sic] that a debit of 4s.2d has been created in respect of stamps on cheque forms. I have already sent to you my Christmas Greetings. May I take this opportunity to convey my sincere wish for a Happy, Happy New Year?

I am sorry that you had so little time with Tom, but hope that you can arrange to get together again for a longer period before the winter is over. Charlie has written me several times and his last letter was a much more cheerful one than those that preceded it. Naturally he misses his old friends and the conditions to which he had become accustomed in this country, but I am sure that he will make the adjustments in time and will find a lot in England to interest and cheer him. It is too bad about that attack of laryngitis but I am glad that it did not prove more serious and that you have so promptly and fully recovered from it. Steer clear of bugs of that kind for the rest of the winter, for New Haven is not noted for being so free of them during the winter seasons as are some other cities and towns. A happy and successful New Year to you. Ever sincerely yours, Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alfred E.
