3 January, 1920.
Mr. H.F.Yung
536 Commonwealth Ave.
Boston, Mass.

My dear Mr. Yung:

Many thanks for your kind letter received this morning and for your thoughtfulness in sending the Li Ghee. We shall all enjoy the nuts, I am sure, whether they are fresh or canned.

It was a great disappointment to me to miss your recent visit. Indeed I have been hoping to find the chance to drop in on you at your Boston headquarters, as I am very anxious to talk over with you your brother’s situation and to help you further, if I can, in solving that hard problem. Unfortunately I have been travelling about the country almost constantly during the past term and have been forced to let most of my personal affairs and interests "go by the board* for the time being. When I once get this job out of the way I shall hope very much to have you come out to Andover for a week-end and give me the opportunity thereby of renewing the old friendship.

With heartiest good wishes for the New Year, believe me

Very sincerely yours.

Dr. Alfred E. Stearns
