Transcription
My dear Irving:
Delighted to get your letter today.
I am not going to consider any of the possibilities that may deflect you from the Red Pencils, as I am counting on your being there. A change of climate is very essential to both you and Mrs. Moultrop.
May I take this opportunity to way that the following are advices on the young Chinese technology student, Arthur Sun.
He called on Mr. Weston and Mr. Eddy. Mr. Weston saw him but Mr. Eddy was away. Mr. Weston seemed to think that he had better hold on to his present job. He was very nice to him, however, and wants later to have him dine with him.
Young Sun, and I think he is right, wants to be affiliated with one of those two firms, and he is counting on an opportunity to go with Mr. Eddy’s firm. It is my understanding that Mr. Eddy returned to his office December 1st. Sun had a very nice talk with Mr. Eddy’s right hand man, Mr. Frail, who asked him to fill in an application blank. He has done this.
I have read a letter that Sun has written to Dr. Stearns at Andover, and it has given me some good reactions
about him. If an opportunity lends, and I am not imposing too much, perhaps should you Know Mr. Frail or Mr. Eddy, you might
say a good word in his direction prior to the time the young man has his interview.
I have advised Dr. Stearns that it is best for Sun to hold on to his present job until he can land something with either Mr. Weston or Mr. Eddy.
With my best regards, -
Cordially yours,
WSM:R
