West Lafayette, Ind.
My dear Wong:
Accept my thanks for your prompt and satisfactory reply to my recent letter of inquiry. I have this morning notified Holt and Company that you had promised to settle the account soon, and that I felt sure that they could rely on you to keep your word. I certainly have no desire to embarrass you in the matter, but I am jealous of the good name of our Chinese boys, and I know from experience that nothing tends sooner to injure one's good name or to arouse suspicion than unpaid bills.
With every good wish to you in your new work, and with kind personal regards, believe me, as always
Very sincerely yours.
