My dear Miss Antony:
I am very grateful to you for your prompt and most helpful reply to my recent letter of inquiry. I am glad, also, to have the report of Helen Tsai's scholarship standing to date and to find that Helen has been proving a satisfactory member of your school community.
My own feeling just now is that Helen will probably be much better off to make her headquarters with you for the Christmas holiday season, though I do not for a moment wish to ask anything unreasonable. Before I decide the question definitely, I am going to find out from Mrs. Nye in South Weymouth whether she has any plans or wishes that would tend to alter my judgment. I wish I could provide for both Helen and her brother here in Andover, but this does not seem practicable or wise. I imagine, though, that she and her brother both will wish to have a part of their vacation together, and in that case, South Weymouth would be the natural meeting point. If, as you have suggested, you are planning to visit Boston after Christmas, I should judge that the South Weymouth visit could most satisfactorily be planned for that period.
Again thanking you most sincerely for the help you have given me, and trusting that I may be able to advise you a bit more definitely within the next few days, believe me.
Very sincerely yours,
