My dear Mr. Evans:
I enclose checks totaling $20.08, the amount advanced by you to cover baggage and transportation expenses of the Chinese students on the occasion of their recent trip to Boston. Please pardon the delay; but as Mr. Chien has not placed his funds in my keeping it was necessary to secure his share of the amount due from him in person and it took me several days to bring home to him just what was required. Mr. Pih whose trunk you have been attempting to trace, has secured admission to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and left yesterday afternoon to take up his work there. If the trunk reaches Andover, I will see that it is forwarded to its proper destination. In the meantime if you are able to locate it in Boston, it might be well to hold it there until you receive instructions from Mr. Pih just where to send it. I have given him your address and have asked him to communicate with you.
With kindest regards and many thanks for what you have done for these wanderers. believe me
Very sincerely yours
Mr. Richard T. Evans
