Stearns, April 17, 1930 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Annie W. Goodrich, Dean, Yale School of Nursing, to Alfred E. Stearns, April 17, 1930 Relation A related resource My dear Dr. Stearns: In reply to your letter through your secretary in relation to Miss Sun’s graduation, may I say that Miss Sun does not complete her course until February 1931. Furthermore she will not receive her degree until the following June at the regular Yale Commencement exercises. The University desires whenever it is at all possible that the students should receive their degrees at this time, and the School of Nursing very much prefers to have them do this. In case Mr. Sun desires his daughter to return to China during the vacation months, I think I should also inform you that our vacation periods extend over a month only which would not enable her to make the trip, nor do I believe in her case particularly it would be advisable to give her an extended leave of absence. You will be, I am sure, glad to know that on the whole Miss Sun is doing very well. She has made up all but one of her deficiencies, and in the practical field she compares well with the other students. I have recently returned from a trip to the Orient. I had hoped that Mr. Sun would get in touch with me while in Peiping, as I understood his daughter had written him, but such was not the case. If it seems imperative that Miss Sun should return to China during the summer we would try to arrange for an absence of two months but, because of the interference with her class work, I believe a longer period would be quite impossible.

Goodrich, Dean, Yale School of Nursing, April 19, 1930 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Annie W. Goodrich, Dean, Yale School of Nursing, April 19, 1930 Relation A related resource My dear Miss Goodrich: Thank you for your letter of April 17 in which you have answered so fully my inquiries about Miss Sun. I do not think that Mr. Sun intended to have his daughter return to China for a vacation only, for he has never done as much as that even for the boys, and as you doubtless know, the daughters of the household do not regularly receive as much consideration as do their brothers. The questions put to me was merely as to the date on which Miss Sun would complete her course at Yale. I am delighted to hear that Mary is doing so well in her practical work, and I trust that the one deficiency which still stands against her in her studies will be cleared away in time. It is too bad that you were not able to meet Mr. Sun when you were in Peiping recently for he is a very unusual man and I am sure would have enjoyed meeting, as you would have enjoyed meeting him. If I had known that you were to be in Peiping, I would have been only too glad to write Mr. Sun myself. One simply cannot trust Chinese in matters of this kind, as I have long ago discovered, and I have no doubt that the daughter for some reason, probably known only to herself, may have decided not to write at all. Perhaps I am unfair in this suspicion but from experiences of my own it is a natural one.

Sun, Tientsin, April 21, 1930 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to C.Y. Sun, Tientsin, April 21, 1930 Relation A related resource My dear Mr. Sun: I have received from the Dean of the Yale University School of Nursing, in response to my recent request, the following statement: "Miss Sun does not complete her course until February, 1931. Furthermore, she will not receive her degree until the following June at the regular Yale Commencement exercises. The University desires whenever it is at all possible that the students should receive their degrees at this time, and the School of Nursing very much prefers to have them do this." I take it from the above that you will wish Mary to remain until her course here is completed next year, even though you may not care to have her stay for the actual awarding of the degree in June. I should myself, however, desire to have her present at the degree awarding if this proves practicable, though I am not prepared to urge that point. Undoubtedly she would find plenty to keep her busy along the lines of her regular work from February to June should she remain for the commencement exercises. Dean Goodrich adds the following also: "In case Mr. Sun desires his daughter to return to China during the vacation months, I think I should also inform you that our vacation periods extend over a month only which would not enable her to make the trip, nor do I believe in her case particularly it would be advisable to give her an extended leave of absence." My impression is that you would not wish Mary to return merely for a brief vacation with only a year of work ahead of her here and the prospect of returning to China for good at the end of that period. I shall await further instructions from you, however, before making any definite report to the Yale Nursing School authorities. Dean Goodrich adds further: "You will be, I am sure, glad to know that on the whole Miss Sun is doing very well. She has made up all but one of her deficiencies, and in the practical field she compares well with the other students." At the end of the letter Dean Goodrich says, "I have recently returned from a trip to the Orient, I had hoped that Mr. Sun would get in touch with me while in Peiping, as I understood his daughter had written him, but such was not the case." I am sorry indeed that you did not have this opportunity to talk with Dean Goodrich in person, for I am sure that you would have welcomed the chance to secure this first-hand and intimate information about Mary and her work and progress at the Yale School of Nursing. Evidently Mary must have carelessly forgotten to write you. I am enclosing a statement of the accounts of Tom and Mary to date. Your last remittance of three thousand dollars came to the Andover bank the latter part of February while I was abroad. It was credited to my account there, though I did not learn until a few days ago that the money had been received, and hence I had not entered it on the accounts of the children. This, however, has now been done, and the enclosed statement shows the accounts, including the remittance in question. Tom has recently been making inquiries at both Harvard and Yale, and apparently has found at the latter institution the courses in Economics, International Law, Government, etc., which he desires. I think it more than likely, therefore, that we shall decide to let him continue his graduate studies at Yale for the coming year.

April 19, 1930 Dear Mr. Stearns, Enclosed please find the account from Dec 1st 1929 until April 1st 1930. I am sorry that I didn't send it to you sooner. Really, I was busy walking around the city trying to make the sick people more comfortable and better. Tom was here last Wednesday. he urged and urged me about going into buy a second hand car with him. Finally I said I will leave it to you to decide for me since he will be here next year. Anyway, Mr. Stearns, I feel that I should not put more than $150 into it if you are willing. Do you think it is same for him? Then there is a lot of insurance expense. Any way, you know best when Tom write you-- will you please give him an answer? I am almost afraid to make any more suggestions to Tom for he is a little bit peeved already for I refused him. I hope that you will not mention to him that I am not anxious about buy the car if you decided like wise. If you think it is sane and a good idea I will be glad to agree. I hope you will have a happy Easter.

Don't worry about the investment in the Ford car that Tom is so eager to secure. In view of the uncertainty in regard to his plans for the near future, it seems to me that it would probably be unwise for him to have the car. If he were to remain for any length of time at Middlebury and pursue in connection with his regular studies investigations into social conditions existing in towns in that section of the country, such a car might prove not only useful but actually a saving in expense. When I first talked with him, we had something of this kind in mind, and I, at least, had also in mind the purchasing of a distinctly old Ford that would cost little if any money. I can't quite believe that your father would approve of Tom's present wish and I shall endeavor to make Tom see this, though I imagine that he will be a bit "peeved" with me, as he seems to be with you.

Stearns, April 19, 1930 Relation A related resource My dear Dr. Stearns, Your letter of the 17th was received. I am surprised to hear that Father intended that I should that I should go back at the same time that Mary goes back. Now I am enrolled in Yale, the Master’s degree is a two- year course, and the Doctor’s degree is a three year’s course, I have good intentions of finishing up with the Doctor’s degree--that is, however, is I get the Master's degree. I have never told you outright, perhaps, that I have no intention of doing further studying. I am going to Yale because I want to please father. I know that he will be disappointed otherwise. Well, that is settled. I had an occassion [sic] to see Mary while I was down in New Haven. We came to the conclusion that it will be all right if we buy a car. She will put up one hundred and fifty dollars($150) and I will put up two hundred and fifty dollars ($250). Then we will be able to buy a second Ford. I am sure that I will not abuse the privilege. So if you will send me four hundred dollars, $150 of it will come out of Mary’s account and 250 dollars will come out of my account. We agreed on that ratio. I know of one car now in town, new last fall, which he said that he will be willing to sell for four hundred dollars. I hope that you will consent to this. If you will send me four hundred dollars by next week, I will be more than appreciative. I hope sincerely that you will see to it. It will mean a lot to me. I expect a letter from Yale in a few days formally accept me into the graduate school.

Stearns to Thomas Sun, Middlebury, Vermont, April 28, 1930 Relation A related resource Dear Tom: I have had to delay answering your letter of April 19 because of the recent Trustees' Meeting and the extra work that that involved. I do not think your father now intends that you should go back to China with Mary, whenever that happens to be, at least if you are in the midst of the process of getting your Master's Degree. Anyway, you should push ahead with the Yale plan with the full intention of completing the course, at least for the Master's Degree. The question of the Doctor's Degree and the extra year can be settled later. I really can’t see my way clear to sanction the purchase of the Ford car at this time, In view of the fact that you are so soon to finish at Middlebury and are to take up the work at Yale not much later. Certainly at Middlebury there could be no good ground for an indulgence of this kind, which even the colleges regularly frown upon and grant only to a limited number of students, as you know. I should feel it necessary in any case to have your father’s sanction, and of course that would take time. So let’s not worry about this for the present, but round out your course at Middlebury with the best kind of a record on which to build your later work.
