The Lima school is much smaller than Phillip but of high standard; and I think you must know some thing about it. According to my idea it would be best for me to go to a smaller school like that for the first two years, and spend the last two years in Phillip. Moreover, the expenses is much less than in Andover. However, as you are acting as my guardian in this country, I have to get your approval before I proceed with my proposition. Hoping to learn from you soon, I am, Yours respectfully, Dr. Alfred E.

Before my son left for the States I had noticed he had a defected nose, now through your thoughtfulness and the kindness of Miss Carter that the operation has been done, which shows the great tenderness and care by you and his surroundings, 1 must apologize to his tutors and miss Carey for an oversight and slip of mind, in not mentioning their names in my previous letters and to thank them through you, which I take this opportunity to do so. While admitting of giving you endless troubles, I wish to know, what my son has accomplished, in his English; I would suggest, that his tutor might give him a task, in the form of an examination, and inform me of the result. In one of my previous letters; I stated I had a desire for him to learn the dentist trade, as according to his intellectual abilities and for the following reasons: (I) while my country is in such an unsettle state I wish him to have a profession,(2) quick and easy to learn,(3) does not require a large capital,(4) by little diligence may not harm and endanger one’s life,(5) the earning will not come from the poor people. Further I would he exceedingly pleased to have your valuable opinion, as to the shortest period of preparation, to enable my son to begin the courses of dentistry.

I am crediting to your boy’s account. Up to the receipt of your check the account had been overdrawn a bit, but I feel sure that your son has really tried hard to keep the expenses within bounds. Just at present he is concerned about his school for next year and is to interview we within a day or two in regard to plans. It is his feeling, and I am inclined to share it, that he is not quite fully prepared to handle the work in so large a school as ours and that he will make better progress in the end to invest the coming year in a small school and come to us later to compete his preparation. This is the plan which many of our Chinese students have pursued in the past, and I cannot help feeling that he will make the best progress in this way.

My dear Dr. Stearns: Your ward, Mr. K. Y. Tu entered this school two weeks ago. He has reported to me that you are his legally appointed guardian in the United States and that the bill for his expenses for the first half year should be mailed to you. This I am doing and, if you are not in funds to pay the entire bill at this time, I would be glad to have you send a check for as much of it as possible and remit the balance at your earliest opportunity. Please explain to me the business arrangement you have with Mr. Tu concerning his spending money and funds for the purchase of clothes and personal articles. I think it would be wise to place here with me, a sum of money, say twenty-five or fifty dollars which I could have at my disposal to meet the emergent demands which arise from time to time such as Dentist bills, Medical care etc. The young gentleman has conducted himself in a commendable manner since he has arrived here. We have made special arrangements for him to have considerable individual attention in the study of English. I trust that he will make good progress in this school. Thinking you may be interested in the Institution in which Mr. Tu is a student, I am mailing you a catalog which will give you some particular data concerning the Seminary which is now nearly one hundred years old. I would be pleased to hear from you stating that you are his legally appointed guardian and that he is financially responsible and able to meet the financial obligations which arise from time to time during this school year.
