Mary Sun, of whom you inquire, is still a member of my household and a day pupil at Abbot Academy in this town. I hope very much that you will run out here some day and see her. Her school duties keep her pretty busy most of the week, but Sundays give her an opportunity to stay at home and see her friends. She is generally free, too, on Wednesday afternoons and could probably arrange for other times if such proved more convenient for you. My home is at 6 Chapel Avenue, just on the edge of the school grounds. Very sincerely yours, Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alfred E.

This in the first intimation I have had from him of his decision. I do not believe that the boy will make good here. At the same time, he came to this country with the definite purpose of completing our course here. He has already been here several years, and has not even made a start. Naturally, his parents and friends in China are disturbed, and although I have attempted to make it clear to them that the boy is more or less of a dunce, I seem to have made little impression. Consequently, it seems to me perhaps not unwise to let him make a start at least. If he should happen to make good, so much for the boy. If he doesn't, I will have some definite evidence to submit to his friends. Very sincerely yours, Principal. Fayuen Sun J.H.

Freeman, Providence, Rhode Island, October 15, 1926 (regarding Arthur Sun) Relation A related resource My dear Mr. Freeman: Thank you for your prompt and most friendly reply to my recent letter in regard to Arthur Sun. Arthur has since written me that he has finally secured his degree at Tech, and for this I am supremely grateful chiefly because I realize what a keen disappointment failure would have brought to the boy’s father. Arthur is not the most promising of Mr. Sun’s four children, but he is pretty steady, though not brilliant, and I believe he will develop better as he grows in age and experience. I have also interested Mr. Spencer Murray in the case, and I am sure with the backings which the boy has from men like you and Mr. Murray, he ought to be able to find a good position in the not distant future.

You have been more than kind in this matter, and I deeply appreciate your interest, as I am sure Mr. Sun, Sr., will when he knows of it. Under the circumstances Arthur Sun ought, in my judgment, to accept the position regardless of any salary. I imagine that his father would be very willing to carry the minor expense of the boy’s living for another year in return for the valuable experience he would gain from a position of this kind. I am writing Arthur to this effect and trust that he will be governed in his further actions accordingly.

Freeman, Providence, Rhode Island, October 7, 1926 (regarding Arthur Sun) Relation A related resource My dear Mr. Freeman: I believe that you are personally acquainted with Mr. C. Y. Sun of Tientsin, China, whose four children have been under my care during their stay in America these past five years. The oldest of the group, Arthur Sun, hopes to secure his degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology this week and is seeking, at the request of his father, a position with some engineering firm in this country where he can gain practical experience before his return to the home land. Arthur Sun has recently applied for a position with the Metropolitan Water Supply Company of Boston, and, as he has been specializing in sanitary engineering, he feels, as do I, that a position of this kind would furnish him with just the best kind of an opportunity to put the finishing touches, so to speak, on his Technology training. I am wondering if a word from you to some of the officials of this Company would not carry a good deal of weight, provided, of course, your knowledge of and Interest in the Sun family would justify you in speaking a word in the boy’s behalf. Mr. Sun, Senior, has asked me to try to help his son secure a position of this kind and naturally I feel a good bit of responsibility in the matter without knowing exactly just how to accomplish the end desired. If the above suggestion is not practicable. I shall be ready and glad to receive any suggestions from you that may aid me in carrying out the father’s expressed wishes and in giving the boy his chance with some good American firm.

He tells me that you are the one who has brought the matter to his attention and asked for settlement. Mr. Sun and his two brothers and sister have been my wards since they arrived in this country from China several years ago and for a time lived in my own home in Andover. He is one of the finest and cleanest fellows I have ever known and is greatly upset over this occurrence. Needless to say both he and I stand ready to meet all proper obligations in the matter, but I shall be glad to have you take the matter up with me direct, since Mr. Sun is still a minor and the funds for his education have been placed by his father in my hands and charge. Will you kindly send me, therefore, a full statement of the affair and an itemized account of the damages involved.

It has just occurred to me that I might save you this trip if it should prove convenient for you to see me in Springfield this coming Sunday. I have promised to take Mr. Gilkey's morning service for him on that day and shall be staying over Saturday night and for Sunday morning at the Colony Club on Maple Street. I shall probably each Springfield fairly late Saturday evening and rust return as soon as possible after the church service in the morning; so that very possibly you might not find this a satisfactory time for the discussion in question. If the suggestion does appeal to you, though, you might telephone me at the Colony Club to see if between us we could find a suitable hour for an appointment.
