Mr. K. T. Tsai, c/o Wah Chang Co., 50 Church St., New York, N.Y. My dear K. T.: Your letter of October 15th has just reacted me and I have read it with the greatest interest. Frankly I am confident that you have made a wise decision in Charlie’s case for the definiteness of business training is what he evidently needs pretty badly at this time. I do hope the scheme will work out as wel1 as we want it to. Please understand that I am still perfectly willing to continue the office of banker for Charlie if you decide later that this is best plan to follow. It does take a good bit of time I must admit and sometimes it has been hard to find that time just when it should have been invested. On the other hand it has given me a close contact with the boy even if the contact has not been of a character always to inspire is happiest feelings towards me, for Charlie, as you know, has been strongly disposed to use up his money pretty fast and I naturally had to try to hold him in check. The plan of putting him on his own resources and a definite allowance ought to work to his advantage provided he can be made to feel that no other sources of income are open to him. I have always understood that in addition to what was sent tie by your fatter, Charlie could from time to time successfully squeeze out of other members of the family more or less generous remittances which enabled him to weather financial squalls that seemed about to upset his boat. Perhaps I am wrong. Anyway the value of the experiment will be largely nullified of course if money is sent him from other sources and he gets the impression that after all it doesn't count for very much whether he keeps within the bounds of his official income or not. I am enclosing the check herewith and shall count on you to hand the balance, after deducting what the boy owes you, to him, Please return the receipt also in order that I amy make proper and prompt report to your father. Are you going to get up this way before you turn your face towards China? I do wish I have another little visit with you. Possibly we could arrange to get together in New York some day for I am occasionally in that part of' the world. With warmest regards and all kinds of good wishes, believe me Very sincerely yours, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns K.T.

T. Tsai. Hotel Marseilles. 103rd Street and Broadway. New York. N. Y. My dear K. T.: Charlie dropped in on me this morning and gave me the shock of my life, for I had been trying ever since midsummer to figure out whether you two fellows were still alive and if so where on earth, or under heaven, You were looted. It seemed almost as if the earth had opened and swallowed you up. Anyway I am glad to get in touch with you once more and especially happy to know that your physical condition is so much improved. May the gain continue until the old trouble has entirely disappeared. I have just written a letter in Charlie’s behalf to the Eastman Business College. If anything further is required don't hesitate to let me know. In the meantime I am wondering what to do about the boy’s funds and am disposed, if you agree, to turn over into your hands the money received several weeks ago from your father and amounting to $2.000. Does this proposition meet with your full approval? I am still perfectly willing to act as the boy’s banker if anything can be gained thereby, but if you are to be in the country during the year I imagine that you will be far better able than I to handle the situation to the boy’s best advantage and interest. Please tell me frankly which course I should adopt. I understand from Charlie himself that he already owes you quite a sum above the amount which I sent you last summer, for which, by the way, I have not yet received any acknowledgment. I felt greatly relieved when Charlie told me this morning that the check had reached you, for I feared it might have gone astray. With the old time good will and best of wishes, believe me Very sincerely yours Dr. Alfred E. Stearns K.T.

F. Tsai 61 Council Road Tientsin, China Dear Charlie Tsai: So you are once more back in the home land. Well, I congratulate you, though I am not sure that in its present chaotic condition China is for the moment the best place to be, even for one of its own countrymen. Tientsin, too, seems to have come in for a little more than its fair share of unrest and anxiety. I do hope that the trouble will speedily blow over and that your Ship of State will settle down on an even keel with a strong hand on the helm. That is what China needs, apparently, to do. I am sorry indeed to hear of Wong’s death. I remember that boy exceptionally well and was very fond of him. He had splendid ability, too, and always seemed to me to be a fellow of real premise. Things are running about as usual here. The baseball team looked pretty poor at the beginning of the season, but our now coach, Mr. Merewether of Brown,has done wonders with them, and I am not sure but that we shall be able to give our Exeter friends a good tussle after all. The track team is one of the best we have had for years. They won the Harvard Interscholastic Meet last Saturday by a great big margin; Exeter was a poor third. Even so, of course, the meet with Exeter may be close, as we know from past experience. Weicker threw the discus way beyond Brandenberg’s record and to a distance that will make even collegians take note. Two of our men cleared the bar in the high jump in the recent Harvard Freshmen Meet at a height of- 5 feet 11 7/8 inches. So you see we have some pretty good performers. Only a month more and the College Hoard examinations will be on us and another year charged up to history. Where the time all goes to it is hard to say. Give my warmest greetings and good wishes to your brothers and father and all the rest of the circle, please, and believe me. In spite of the tiffs we have had from time to time in the past, Always sincerely your good friend. ABS/G Charlie Tsai Dr. Alfred E.

If it does, be sure that it carries with it hearty thanks for your most generous letter of July 15th, which followed me up to my sumner camp in the northern wilderness, and my best wishes for a pleasant and safe voyage back to the home land. Your Andover visit, in spite of the antics of the weather, will always remain a delightful memory. I only wish that we might get another glimpse of you before you turn your face to the far East. Accept my gratitude, please, for your generous offer to serve me in the Orient if the opportunity presents. It does sometimes happen that I am glad to secure little articles of one kind or another that can be purchased so abundantly, and reasonably too, and that can rarely be found on this side of the globe. Your rash but generous offer, therefore, may yet be accepted. If it is I shall try to be restrained in my requests, so that you will be able to stand the shock, and the strain. Mr. Hinman of our faculty, and one of the instructors at Long Lake Lodge where Tsai has been passing the summer months, has just been in my office and tells me that Tsai was probably the most popular boy in the camp this summer. Everybody liked him, and about his only fault, according to Hr. Hinman, was the tendency to make too free use of his money. I had already detected this trait, and am a bit afraid that I shall have a little difficulty in keeping the boy within the proper bounds in this respect. I assume, however, that you do not wish him to spend much money, even though the family funds can stand the strain.

Fitzpatrick 1 East Avenue Ithaca, N. Y. My dear Miss Fitzpatrick: I am very much indebted to you for your friendly and explicit letter of June 7. Your explanations are more than clear, and I understand the situation fully. Recently I found it necessary to make provision for Mary Sun to cover the three weeks intervening between the close of her school year and the opening of the summer term at Ithaca. I chose the Tea Pines School down on Cape Cod and shortly after learned that the school had a summer session, generously attended and offering seemingly an unusually wholesome and vigorous life at an attractive seashore spot. It seemed to me that it would probably be well, under the circumstances, to allow Mary to remain at Sea Pines for the rest of the summer, and I wrote to Dr. Sze in Washington explaining the most recent development and asking his advice. A letter received from him this morning indicates that he appears to approve to my suggestion, and I am consequently making application for Mary's continuance at Tea Pines for the rest of the summer. Let me take this opportunity of thanking you for your generously expressed willingness to assume the responsibility of the oversight of Mary Sun during the summer. If the Ithaca arrangement had been made, I should have been immensely relieved and gratified to know that you were exercising this supervision over Mary's life and interests. Very sincerely yours.
