Stearns, September 9, 1926 Relation A related resource My dear Dr. Stearns: Your protege, Sun, came in to see me yesterday and he is the most charming Chinaman I have ever met. He made an exceedingly favorable impression upon me and I saw the Dean immediately afterwards and found that he had made a similar impression upon him and I have told the Dean that I thought we would be justified in holding our usual condition a little bit in abeyance if he did not make the full number of credits for entrance. I did not tell Sun this for it is perfectly obvious that he wants to be treated like every other boy and have no favors shown him. That was one of the things which made me like him. I am very grateful to you for steering him in this direction and we look for good things from him.

Be a little wary of the blandishments of my protege, Tom Sun, for all that glistens in his case is not always gold. He is a mighty attractive little kid, though, for all that, but a real Oriental in many ways and about as clever as they make them. Professions and promises are always profuse, but so far the accomplishments have fallen far behind. Anyway, I do hope earnestly that you can admit the boy, and I am inclined to think that he will prove a good citizen. He needs to be held sharply to his tasks, however, and if this can be done, he is perfectly capable of performing well. With warmest greetings to all the members of the Moody family and trusting that this may prove the best year ever, believe me Faithfully yours, Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alfred E.

Stearns to Mary Sun, Springfield, Mass., September 11, 1926 Relation A related resource My dear Mary: I am just back in Andover and find your letter of September 9. Here is a check to cover the trip to Elmira, etc., but I am sure that the bill for your opening expenses can and will be sent to me if you so instruct the office. Please ask them about this as soon as you reach Elmira and explain how your funds are handled. I will see that a check is sent at once on receipt of the bills. This, of course is much better than to attempt to give you money to cover them when neither of us knows what the charges will amount to. Perhaps I can find out from the catalogue, and, if so, I will send a check to the college treasurer at once. Be sure to keep careful account of this sum I am sending you now. The coat is here at the house, and I am forwarding it to you today. Frankly, I can't tell, of course, just what you require in the way of clothes, as Miss Clemons always handled that phase of your affairs. If, however, you and Arthur are both convinced that a coat is necessary, you should have it. The price you mention seems a dreadfully high one, though I know clothes are excessively high everywhere. Anyway, it becomes more than ever important to keep the expenses of the coming year down to the lowest ebb in order to average up, so far as possible, on the past year's expenses. Mr. Robinson, I believe, is arranging for accommodations for you at Elmira, and I hope that everything will turn out well and that you will find the new life and work happy and in every way profitable. Let me know as soon as you can what the final address at Elmira is to be.

Robinson, National Council of the Young Men's Christian Associations (YMCA), New York, to Alfred E. Stearns, September 11, 1926 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Arthur G. Robinson, National Council of the Young Men's Christian Associations (YMCA), New York, to Alfred E. Stearns, September 11, 1926 Relation A related resource Dear Dr. Stearns: It was very good to get your letter of September 6th confirming my understanding of the arrangements regarding Mary Sun. Anticipating this I went up to Elmira on Tuesday of this week and had a most successful visit there with people who might be interested in her case. I had preceded my arrival with letters to the general Secretary of the Y.M.C.A. there so that he could at once refer me to families that might make a home for Mary. This trip to Elmira had to be taken on that particular day due to other engagements here in New York. I had hoped to have a letter to you prior to my going, but in the absence of your letter I took a chance on making tentative arrangements there. Everything now has worked out as well as we could hope and I shall at once write to Mrs. Eli Pitman, asking her for an estimate of charges for board, etc., which I shall send to you as soon as I hear from her. Just a word about this Pitman family. Dr. Eli Pitman is a District Superintendent of the Methodist Church. The Pitmans formerly lived in Elmira. At that time he was Pastor of a local church. They came back to Elmira after some years of absence to make their home there and work out from there into the district for which he is responsible. Mrs. Pitman is the mother of six children, three of them grown daughters. One is a missionary to China, the other two will be living in Elmira this year. The youngest with her husband will be there in the home so that at times when Mrs. Pitman will be away her daughter will be in charge of the household. The Pitmans are of English extraction which seemed to me to provide a broader attitude with regard to the Chinese. Their daughter being a missionary to China also gives them a sympathetic attitude and altogether the home environment and Mrs. Pitman’s personality would give Mary a much better place than I had hope to find. At this time perhaps I do not need to say more about the Pitmans. Upon hearing from Mrs. Pitman as to the matter of expenses, I shall write you and then you and Mary can work out a budget that will meet the case. Just now I ought to know as soon as possible what further steps I ought to arrange for in getting Mary settled at Elmira. I am wondering if one of her brothers will come on with her and go up there, or whether I ought to meet her here in New York and accompany her to Elmira. I have to leave the East for St. Louis not later than the nineteenth and have certain dates in Pennsylvania to arrange for before then. My sister, who lives in Portland about sixty miles from Elmira, has not begun her Fall work yet, and I have been thinking that she might help to meet Mary and get her settled. If Arthur or Charlie could come on, I suppose that would be best of all. I have written Arthur but have heard nothing from him. I understand that Elmira College opens September 21st. Thank you for your very full comment on Arthur’s attitude. At some later time I hope we can talk things over at some length.
