Mr. B.R.Vaughan
Boston, Mass.

My dear Sir:

I have your note of February 3, inquiring about Mr. Y.S.Tseng, one of our former Chinese students. Most of the Chinese boys who come to us have been wards of mine at the request of their parents. Mr.Tseng is an exception, and I know little about him expect he seemed a bit flashy and altogether too free a spender during his school course with us to indicate the presence in his make-up of a very serious purpose. There were times when he was pretty badly behind with his bills, though it is my impression that these were all straightened out in the end. The last I heard of Mr. Tseng he was supposed to be on his way back to China - at least he assured me personally that that was his plan when he left us some weeks ago. I really am not in any position advise you as to the boy’s financial responsibility.

Very truly yours.
