My dear Li: Your letter of the 7th inst. with enclosed check for twenty five dollars to balance your account arrived in this morning. Accept my thanks for the letter as well as for the check. I hope the settlement at this time has not inconvenienced you. I am delighted to hear of the successful outcome of your first term at Lafayette. That is the kind of record that we like to see all you Chinese boys make, for it will mean much to you in later life, and through you, more than you can perhaps realize to your country and the world. The opportunities which will lie before you when you return to China will be tremendous, and your people must look to you educated boys for the leadership which China is going to need in the next few of years of history. Keep up the good work while the chance is still yours, for you will never have occasion to neglect it in later years. I appreciate very much your own and your father’s kindness is remembering Mrs. Stearns and myself at this time. I trust, however, that you will both realize that whatever I have done or can do for you while you are in this country is a privilege, and should never be thought to place you under any obligations. Wishing you every success and satisfaction during the New year on which we are just entering, believe me, Yours sincerely yours, C. L. Li Dr. Alfred E.

Mr. C.L. Li Easton, Pa. My dear Li:- I enclose herewith statement of your account for the past school year 1907-'08. You will note that the account has been slightly overdrawn and that a balance of $25.47 is due me. I knew last June when I settled up some of the bills presented that I was running pretty close to the line, but I had not time to figure how close, and the matter did not trouble me, as I expected that you would be back in the fall, and knew that you would make good any legitimate deficit in any case. I am sorry not to have been able to send you the account, but you know what the opening days of the school year are like to those of us who are in charge. I shall be glad to receive your check for the amount in question at your convenience. Kindly make it payable to Alfred E. Stearns, Agent. We miss you here this year and it doesn't seem at all natural not to meet you about the place or in the office. I trust, however, that the new surroundings and life and work are all that you could desire, and that your year will prove to be the most successful yet. With every good wish to you, and trusting that you will let me hear from you from time to time, for I shall always be interested in your work and progress. Very sincerely yours,   C. L.

Boston, Mass. Dear Sir:- I wish to thank you for the copy of the records made by candidates from this school for admission to the Institute. I note that Tsai, one of our Chinese boys, is in trouble because of the lack of a testimonial for his Geometry. The boy did very well on the theorems but not so well on the application of them, and as he did not pass his course in the spring term his instructor, who is inclined to regard a recommendation as a guarantee denied him one. If his record on your examination seems to warrant his being credited with that subject, we should be perfectly willing to have him accepted. He has been a faithful student with us. His brother has made an exceptionally fine record at Cornell, and I think this boy is capable of equal attainment. In view of the boy’s being a foreigner, we should be glad to see any favor in the way of entrance examinations extended to him which your Committee on Admissions sees fit to grant. Very truly yours.
