Mr. M.C. Kennedy&#13;
Chambersburg, Pa&#13;
&#13;
Dear Sir:-&#13;
&#13;
I am referring your letter inquiring about the former Chinese Ambassador to Dr. Charles D. Tenney of Cambridge, who I think will be able to give you the information you desire. The Minister's name is Chentung Liang Cheng. He was for a time in the foreign service at Pekin [sic], but has recently been appointed director of the Hankow Railroad. I imagine that a letter sent to that address would reach him, but Dr. Tenney will be able, I think, to speak with more definiteness.&#13;
&#13;
Very truly yours.&#13;
Principal.&#13;
