My dear Mr.Sze: You will be delighted to hear, I am sure the good news continued in a letter which I have this morning received from President Lent of Elmira College and which reads as follows: "Our Committee on Admissions met today. Your letter was referred to them. I am glad to report that they recommend the admission of Miss Mary Sun. We are accepting her on your recommendation.” I am forwarding the statement of Mary’s work up to date in order that they may know just where she stands. I have also written Dr. Lent that it was my intention to have Mary work during the summer at Elmira with one of the members of his teaching force. Mary has just written me that her school year ends June 3, a very early date, and I am wondering whether the right person to take care of her during the summer can be found by that time and would perhaps be willing to begin work at that early date. I don’t quite know how best to handle Mary during the month of June, unless such an arrangement can be worked out. The reason here is, of course, a busy and hectic one, and there is always a demand beyond my power to supply, for accommodations and entertainment at my home from visiting guests and returning alumni. It is just possible that the Whittier school can provide some special arrangement by which Mary can continue to work there. At any rate, I shall try to find out about this before deciding on the final plan. In the meantime, now that Mary has been definitely accepted at Almira, I hope that we can soon find the right person and the right home for her for the vacation period. With warm regards, believe me Very sincerely yours Dr. Alfred E.

My dear Dr. Lent: Accept my hearty thanks for your generous decision to admit Mary Sun to Elmira College on the recommendations already sent you. I am forwarding the good news to Mr. Sze at Washington who, I am sure, will share my feelings of appreciation and gratitude. I have written to Mary’s present school for a detailed statement of the work she will have covered at the end of this current school year. This ought to be available within the next two or three days. It is the expectation of Mr. Sze and myself that Miss Sun will continue her studies this summer under the guidance of one of your faculty so as to round out, so far as possible, the full preparation required of your girls who enter in the regular way. I greatly appreciate your onerous invitation to me to preach at Elmira some time next fall. With my ward Mary Sun there, I should naturally be more strongly tempted than ever to contribute the time involved in malting the trip, for that is the main element that I have to consider. Under the circumstances I am strongly tempted to say "yes" to your invitation, even though I have felt it necessary to curtail pretty rigidly for the coming school year these outside speaking engagements which have become a bit too exacting during the past year or two. I should prefer a date in late November or early December, if such an arrangement should prove acceptable to you. Very sincerely yours. Dr. Alfred E.

My dear Dr. Lent: I believe that our mutual friend, Mr. Sze, the Chinese Minister at Washington, has told you of my desire to enter at Elmira College this coming fall my Chinese ward, Mary Sun, now studying at the Whittier School in Merrimac Mass., in preparation for college. The case is an unusual one, and I need your help and generosity, perhaps, in handling it properly. Mary Sun and her three brothers have been my wards for the past five years, living for a good part of that time under my own roof. Two of the boys are now in college and the third will probably enter next fall. My understanding at the outset was that Mary was to be in this country only five years and was to take a general preparatory school course. She had a year in our local grammar school, part of a year at Northfield and since that time up to the middle of the past term she has been a student at Abbot Academy in Andover. She would have secured her diploma in the general course at Abbot this June, had she continued there. Several months ago I learned to my surprise that her father had decided to have his daughter go on to college. This decision left me with a hard problem on my hands, for I don’t believe that Mr. Sun understood at all the difference between the general and college preparatory course or what would naturally be involved in the change. However, I had no alternative and immediately arranged for the girl to do special college preparatory work in another school where she could have the individual attention and intensive work necessary. In the meantime I made a special trip to Washington to consult with the Chinese minister who was a personal friend of Mary’s father. As a result of this conference we both agreed that a large college, like Wellesley or Smith, would probably be less desirable than a smaller one, although Miss Pendleton of Wellesley has written offering to make any reasonable concessions in the girl’s behalf. The decision in favor of Elmira was prompted also by the fact that Mr. Sze was familiar with the conditions there through the presence of a relative or ward in the college and entertained a very high regard for the standards and atmosphere of the place. After my talk with him, I felt sure that Elmira was the college that Mary Sun should select, and I am writing now to inquire how far you will be able to make concessions to her as a foreigner and also because of her somewhat broken preparation, for which she, of course, cannot properly be held responsible. I know that some colleges are accustomed to deal pretty generously with foreigners who are earnest and dependable, and I am hoping very much that this can be said of Elmira. Mary Sun comes from a rather unusual family, her father, a retired banker being a man of exceptionally high ideals and fine character. He was head of the Chinese Red Cross during the war and has served as chairman of many flood, famine, and other relief organizations for his country. All who have met him speak in the highest terms of his character and worth. Naturally I feel under unusual obligations to be the best I can for his children who have Leon entrusted to me during their American sojourn. Mary, herself, is an earnest student, though not brilliant, very likable, and always ready to give her best to her studies. She has also been popular with her classmates and teachers alike, and I am sure she would prove a helpful addition to your student body. Her present teacher assures me that, in her judgment, Mary would be perfectly capable of maintaining college standing if concessions could be made to enable her to enter college this fall. As the girl is already over twenty, I can’t bring myself to believe that another year of preparation should be permitted if it could possibly be avoided. Please pardon this somewhat lengthy outline of the case, but it is an unusual one, as you will see, and I shall greatly appreciate, therefore, any help or advice you can give me. Mr. Sze, I believe, has recently discussed the case with some of your officers, and, if the proposed arrangement is carried out, it is our intention to provide, if possible, a home for Mary this coming summer in Elmira under the supervision of one of your teaching force, where she will not only be properly cured for but in addition gain special instruction to complete her preparation for the college work.

It was nice of you to accept the Abbot Academy decision in the good spirit in which you did, for I know you wanted to go, and I know, too, that I would have loved to have you go if only the Abbot people had played fair with me and you in the past. When you get to Almira, I hope that we shall have no misunderstandings of the kind that have troubled us in the past. I hope to hear from Elmira within the next few days, as I am sending them a preliminary application in your behalf, and Mr. Sze who was out there only this last week, wired me that he, too, would make inquiries. I am going to try to run over one of those days and get a look at you but, so far, I have been too busy to find the necessary time.

Sao-Ke Alfred Sze The Chinese legation Washington, D.C. My dear Mr.Sze: In response to your recent communication I wired you at Odessa as follows: "Thanks for message. Very grateful if you can arrange for Mary Sun’s summer at Elmira in home of some reliable teacher as suggested in our last conversation. Have delayed formal application for admission pending advices from Mary’s present school as to subjects she will be qualified to offer for entrance. Expect to have this within next few days. Summer tutoring probably necessary in any case.” I hope that this message reached you safely and that you gathered its meaning. As to Mary Sun’s telegram, which you were good enough to send me, the reference to Robinson is in connection with a contemplated visit of Mr. Arthur Robinson, Y. M. C. A. Secretary at Tientsin and a very close friend of Mr. Sun, who has been here once before to discuss the problems of these children with me and who Mr. Sun writes is coming again this spring to talk over with me further the plans for the future. During the uncertainty connected with the further work of Mary Sun and her brother Tom I have written both Mr.Sun and Mr. Robinson and have asked them to discuss together the contents of these letters, since I thought that I might be able to make myself a little clearer to Mr. Robinson than I could to Mr. Sun and that he would be able in consequence to enlighten the latter. I imagine that Mr. Robinson may appear at almost any time now, though I have not heard from him for some weeks. A word about the Elmira situation. I hope to have full information within the next few days from Mary’s present teachers so as to be able to give the Elmira authorities as complete information as possible as to Mary's fitness to enter anti carry the work there. In the meantime I hope that you will be able to secure from your friends in Elmira an endorsement of some reliable member of the faculty who will be willing to take Mary into her home this summer and give her such instruction as she may need to round out her preparation. This seems to me to be distinctly the best plan I can think of for Mary's summer and, if I remember rightly. It is one which you originally suggested. My main concern is that the family selected should be of the right kind and supply Mary a home with refinement and culture and reasonable oversight. I dislike exceedingly to burden you with a matter of this kind, and I can never tell you how deeply I appreciate the help you have given me thus far.

Dear Mary: I have received and read with interest your letter of recent date. Here is the check, as requested, to cover the May allowance. A word about that suggested visit to Abbot. I want to play fair with you and everybody concerned, and, as I told you, I am perfectly willing and have been for a long time that your Abbot friends should visit you on the customary visiting days. I believe some of them have done so during this present week- That, however, is a different matter from the proposed visit to Abbot. In view of the attitude and actions of some of the Abbot teachers and authorities who, knowing nothing whatever of my correspondence with your- father, undertook to dictate the course you were to pursue and, in consequence, made the whole situation exceedingly uncomfortable and hard for me, forcing even a trip to Washington for consultation with your Minister there, and in view of the further fact that, since the truth of the matter became known to them, there has been no single word of apology or indication of such, I cannot in self-respect sanction such a visit as proposed. If it seemed best for you to leave Whittier for the week-end, I should be glad enough to have you come to the house and invite your friends to see you there. As it is, I do not think you ought to leave school for the week-end in question. In order to find out the exact situation, I telephoned Mrs. Russell and found that not more than half the school is to be away. This, I understand, is to be a general week-end for as many as desire it in order to avoid absenses scattered through the term. As you are already planning to invest one week-end in a trip to Bowdoin, you will be as well off as the other girls without taking this week-end. Further, I am sure that some worth while school work can be done if you stay, and you must remember that it is still an open question whether you are going to have enough work on hand to gain admission to college in the fall. I hope you will understand fully my position, for the request in itself is natural enough and I should love to grant it if I felt that I could do so in fairness to all concerned and for your own best interests as well. We are still corresponding with Elmira and will let you know the moment anything definite and final can be determined. With all good wishes, believe me Very sincerely yours. Dr. Alfred E.

My dear Charlies: Please pardon my delay in answering your recent letter, but I have been somewhat at a loss to know just what to say. naturally I am disturbed a bit to learn that you have been ill, but trust that you are fully recovered by this time and that your health will keep strong and vigorous from now on. A word about the summer. I can’t quite figure out an available and satisfactory job for you and your friend at the Academy during the summer vacation. We always have a boy or two at the office to run errands, etc., but naturally wo are accustomed to take one of the scholarship boys here on the ground. Even so, I doubt whether this kind of work would prove very stimulating or remunerative. If I hear of anything that sounds at all promising, I shall follow it up and advise you promptly. On the whole, the summer school proposition appeals to me, except for the fact that I really believe that you ought to plan to rest and relax for a fair portion of the summer anyway. A fellow that works conscientiously as you do during the college year is not only entitled to but is sure to profit by a few weeks of complete rest and change. I am sure your father would agree with me. When college closes, run down here for a few days and we can talk things over. Possibly I may be up in Amherst myself at commencement time, and, if you are still there, we can discuss plans then. In the meantime keep me posted if anything new develops or you desire further help from me. With all kinds of good wishes to you, believe me Ever sincerely yours, Charles Sun Dr. Alfred E. Stearns
