My dear Mr. Johnson:
While I am not legally responsible for Mr. Lee’s affairs, I have been willing for a number of years past to handle his money for him, and to act, in an unofficial way, as his counselor and friend. I shall be very glad, therefore, to go on his bond, and I am filling out and returning the same to you herewith.
Very sincerely yours,

My dear Mr. Stearns:
Mr. Y.C. Lee, a Chinaman in the Freshman class, has stated that you will be his bondsman. If that is the case, that is if you are willing to sign a personal bond requiring no deposit of collateral in the usual form I shall be very grateful if you will do so, using the blank enclosed herewith.
As I understand it is entirely optional with you whether you will go on Mr. Lee's bond or not. Your willingness to do so will depend on reasons satisfactory to yourself alone. If you do not feel that you wish to undertake this measure of responsibility for him he will have to try to find someone else to do it.
Yours truly,
