Transcription
My dear Mr. Murray:
Thanks for your letter of December 3 and for the kindly sentiments expressed therein.
I am glad that you feel as you do about Arthur Sun’s present job and I have tried to emphasize to the boy that, regardless of where he starts, he will only be a real success in the end to the extent in which he enlarges for himself, by efficient service and achievement, the boundaries, whatever their size, of the job that is for the moment his. Just how capable he is intellectually of doing this, I am not quite sure, though I hope that he will be found to possess a proper amount of ambition, at least.
It was mighty nice of you to write to Mr. Moultrop, as you did.
Very sincerely yours,
AES/G
