To Alfred E. Stearns Esq,
Principal, Phillips Academy
Andover, Mass.
U.S. America

Dear Sir:

Thanks for your kind letter or April 25th, also a copy of your catalogue & bulletins. My nephew Hsu Kun Kwong, who was at your academy from 1909-1910, before he entered Princeton University, strongly recommends my son to come to your academy to pursue a course of preparation for entering the Mass. Inst. of Technology.

Alfred Kwong, my son, is now attending the High school of Springfield Mass. I have written to him to come to see you, & take your entrance examinations as soon as possible, not wait till 18th of Sept.1918. I hope you will be kind enough not to give him such a hard & difficulty examination as to flunk him, which means nonadmittance.

I am very anxious & desire greatly that my son should enter your school, in preference to any other preparatory schools, for I know you give very thorough training in all subjects require for college admittance.

Thanking you again for your kind offer to assist me in any way.

Yours faithfully,

Creator

K.Y. Kwong
