Andover, Mass.
Dear Dr. Stearns:
I returned from Turkey last week. I found on my desk a letter from Admiral Tsai dated Nov. 14th in which he said that he had remitted another $2000. I have not received this remittance. I wonder if it had been sent to you direct.
Admiral Tsai also asks me to arrange with you for a fee for your guardianship. Will you tell me frankly how I should answer him on this point? The Admiral also writes:
*1 appreciate what Dr. Stearns has done. The children are satisfied and are now studying hard. Their letters are cheerful and we are certain that you, Mrs. Sze and Dr. Stearns, are making their stay in the U.S. happy and comfortable.*
Yesterday I sent you a box from our friend Mr. Sun. The two lacquer vases came in a damaged condition. The glass cover of the inner case cams broken and I presume that in turn damaged the vases. There are also two other presents for the other members of your house in the same box I forwarded to you.
What are the latest news you have of the Tsai and Sun children? If in any way I can be of assistance to you or them, please let me know.
With compliments of the Season,
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Alfred E. Stearns,
Phillips Academy,
Andover, Mass.
