Mr. Tsai Shou Kie,
5 Pace Course Road,
Tientsin, China.
My dear Mr. Tsai:
Let me acknowledge receipt of your letter of November 10th, enclosing draft on the International Backing Corporation of York for sixteen hundred dollars ($1,600.00), to be credited to the account of your boy, Kuo-fang. I am enclosing statement to date by which you will rote that there is a balance at the prevent time remaining your son's favor of $452.04.
We have so many Chinese boys here this year that I feel more closely in touch with your good country than I have felt since my actual visit there a few years ago. Hardly a day goes by that I do not receive letters from China or send letters there myself. Only two days ago our latest arrival appeared from Tientsin, Mr. Quincy Sheh,whom you no doubt know.
I am glad to report that Kuo-fang still appears to be getting ahead, but sometimes I am a bit fearful lest his exceptional popularity among the boys in general may tend to upset his equilibrium a bit, but so far I have noted no indications that the effect has been anything but temporary.
With kindest personal regards, believe me always.
Very sincerely yours.
