Accept , too, please, my hearty thanks for the scarf which you so generously gave me at the Christmas season. I shall value it highly. After your visit with Mr. Brown I think it would be well for you to plan to run down to Andover a day or two before school is booked to open, so that I can discuss with you the best plan to follow for the rest of the school year. Perhaps you have been giving the matter some thought yourself and may have some suggestions to offer. Faithfully yours, Charlie Tsai Dr. Alfred E.

Please O.K. and return this also. If you can get into a college like Amherst this fall, by all means put in your best work to do so.

Mr. K. F. Tsai. The Stearns School. Mont Vernon, N. H. My dear Tsai: Thank you for your letter. Your account has been overdrawn, as you know, by several hundred dollars, and I am holding back for payment several bills, including the final tuition bill at Mont Vernon. A day or two ago I received a check from your father for $500.00,which will a little more than square the account to date, but will not permit me to meet all of the payments due. Consequently I am sending your father, this morning, a detailed statement so that he may see just how matters stand. I will negotiate a loan if necessary, to tide you over until we get some further remittances from home. I can’t help feeling that the money has gone too fast, even making full allowances for the extra expenses incurred by your illness. I enclose herewith check for $5.00, to cover the trip to Andover. If you need more you can explain the situation to me when you come down, for the round trip will be more than covered by this amount. Faithfully yours, Charlie Tsai Dr. Alfred E.

Mr. K. F. Tsai The Stearns School Mont Vernon. N. H. My dear Tsai: I have your letter of March 16th. Twenty dollars for incidental purchases at the store seems to me a pretty big account for you to have run up in this short time; though I am willing to hold my judgment in abeyance until you get back. Your tendency to spend money freely, however, has always troubled me a bit and has been one of the influences that has led me to question seriously whether it was fair to your father for you to continue the American experiment. Do be careful, and when you get back next week let me know just what has happened. Ever yours, Charlie Tsai Dr. Alfred E. Stearns https://chinesestudents.andover.edu/files/original/ef5652de2fafca7570712c04c0e47a27.jpg 564534efb4898fbbdb36d3fe71693a0a Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I believe I also mailed you the report of your medical examination in Boston. If so, kindly send it back to me, for I have promised it to your father and I do not feel justified in bothering Dr. Pratt to make out a duplicate copy. I have written your father fully about it and told him that I felt that now that you knew for a certainty that you had no real physical weakness to worry about, I had every reason to believe that you would be able to take hold of your work with better courage from now on, and that the relief to your mind would find itself expressed in a generally better physical condition.

F. Tsai The Stearns School Mont Vernon, New Hampshire My dear Tsai: Thank you for your nice note. I am enclosing check for ten dollars, as requested. Kindly return receipt. I do hope you will find that your work at Mont Vernon for the rest of this year will help you greatly in developing a little more momentum and in getting results. I can’t bear to think of the possibility of your losing out, though, as you know, I have been very anxious and at times much disappointed up to date. Let me take this opportunity also to apologize sincerely for the unfortunate developments at the beginning of the term, for the story has come to me that you returned to Andover without any idea that you were to withdraw at this time, and that you did not discover the fact until you found some one else in your room. I thought I had made it clear to you before you left for your holidays that this was without much doubt to be the decision of the faculty. When I wrote you, therefore, during the middle of the holiday vacation asking you to come to Andover a day or two before school opened in order to decide on your plans for the future, I felt practically clear that you could interpret this letter in no other way than that the decision for the change had been definitely reached. If I had happened to be here at the very openings of the winter term, perhaps I could have eased the situation for you. Anyway I am sincerely sorry for what happened, and can assure you that whatever the humiliation to which you may have been subjected, it was all entirely unintentional on my part. Very sincerely yours, Enclosures Charlie Tsai Dr. Alfred E. Stearns https://chinesestudents.andover.edu/files/original/30180c2ffe03023dc009a61a4f4e34a0.jpg aeed59e40e57bb412c0e9fed647d162f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Mr. K. F. Tsai The Stearns School Mont Vernon,N.H. My dear Tsai: I am enclosing two bills for your endorsement. Frankly, I am getting a bit discouraged ever these bills which keep coming in from Burns. It is increasingly clear to me that you are not developing appreciation of the value of money and the necessity of avoiding extravagances. You have paid more for ties alone in the last month or two than most fellows pay in a couple of years. Please give this whole matter serious thought and see if you can’t find a way to cut down unnecessary expenses. As you knew, I am not yet fully clear as to the wisdom of continuing the American connection too long; and I should feel very greatly distressed if my conscience compelled me to advise your father to terminate it. Your father has sent you to this country to get the best and not the worst that America has to offer, and extravagance is one of the worst features of American life to-day.

The check of exchange which you sent me will not be cashed under the circumstance, as the first one sent me direct by your father reached me duly and was deposited to my agent account and credited to your personal account with me. My files show that its receipt was acknowledged in a letter to your father dated February 22nd. Evidently that letter had not reached him at the time he wrote you. I hope and believe, however, that he will have received it ere this. When next you write him please mention the fact that the check was received on! credited to your account, so that if my earlier letter has by chance gone astray he will have no further occasion to worry. Faithfully yours, Charlie Tsai Dr. Alfred E. Stearns
