Explains some have done well and almost all are courtous and gentlemanly. Noticed a growing trend to extravagences. Believes there are too many attending this year, allowing them to forgo English studies and communicate entirely in Chinese. Does not wish to increase the number of students, an idea the Chinese minister supports. Suggests Dummer Academy as another good school choice. Will ask Dr. Ingham to send a catalogue to Thebaud.

My dear Sir:- I have read with interest your letter of the 17th inst. received yesterday. I shall be glad to offer you such advice and help as I can, though I question how far my opinions may prove of value to you. For the past three or four years we have had from six to ten Chinese students here each year. Consequently I have become somewhat familiar with their ways and their behavior under our American school conditions. Some of these boys have done exceptionally well. Almost without exception they have proved themselves unusually courteous and gentlemanly in their relations with us, and in the main have studied faithfully. I have noted, however, a growing tendency to extravagances, especially in the matter of clothes, and this tendency has disturbed me a good deal. I am inclined to think, too, that this year at least there have been too many of these boys here for their own good. They have found it too easy to get together and make use of their own language to the detriment of their English, and on the whole they seem to have been not quite so earnest and studious this year. I should not like to increase the size of the delegation now in Andover, and hence I do not feel justified in recommending this school for your friends just now. I know the recent Chinese minister, whom I know intimately, and who was himself formerly a student in this school, felt very strongly that it was unwise to get too many of these boys together in one place. [sentences illegible] Trusting that you will feel free to advise me if I can be of farther service to you in this matter, believe me. Very truly yours, Principal Dr. Alfred E.

Chan Troy, N.Y. My dear Chan:- It was a real pleasure to receive your letter this morning, and to learn of your continued interest in and loyalty to the school. We miss greatly the boys who went from us last year, and though newcomers are always welcome and always bring with them a large number who prove attractive, the old places and faces can never be fully replaced. In view of the fine record which you Chinese boys have made here and the uniform courtesy and good manners you have always displayed, it is not strange that I, as well as others, am interested in you. I hope we may always have a good delegation of Chinese in the school. I am sending Mr. Thebaud a catalogue, as requested, and am writing him expressing my willingness to send him any further or more detailed information he may desire. Thanking you for the interest you have taken in the same, and wishing you all [illegible] and happiness in the days before you, believe me, with kind regards.

My Dear Lo: Your letter with enclosures reached me just after my return to Andover from my vacation. I have looked up the correspondence and your office record and am somewhat at a loss to know just how to handle your case. I am anxious to do you full justice and to aid you to every way in gaining admission to Cornell, at the same time, our rules prohibit me from granting admission certificates to you since you are not a graduate. I have, however, signed your recommendation of moral character and am returning it with the Technology report herewith. I am also enclosing you a copy of your complete record with us, which you may use in any way you deem fit. If any obstacles still remain in the way of your admission to Cornell, please ask the Registrar to state to me just what is desired and if I can in any way make exceptions in view of the fact that you are a foreigner, I shall be only too glad to do so.

Dear Sir: In the absence of Principal Stearns permit us to acknowledge the receipt of your favor of the sixth. I note that you plan to enter Cornell this Fall and ask for a certificate covering the work you have passed here. If you will look up in the Cornell catalogue the conditions for admission on certificate you will find that only graduates of approved schools are given that privilege. Since you have not yet graduated here, I suppose it will, therefore, be impossible for us to fill out for you a regular Cornell certificate covering the work you have done. No doubt Mr. Stearns will be entirely willing to give you a letter of honorable dismissal, but I fear he could not sign the form which you sent, because you have said, “No”, to the question which asks if you have “taken an entrance examination held by a college or by the C.E.E. Board”. Probably you did not notice that the question refers to any college examinations. No doubt the wisest thing for you to do would be for you to see Mr. Hoy, the registrar of Cornell, and talk the matter over with him. Very sincerely yours, [signature] C. Lo. Ying Derrick E.
