Transcription
My dear Dr. Stearns,
At last I have graduated from Middlebury College. I received my diploma this morning at the exercises.
When I was down at Andover the last time, you said something that you will try to secure for me a position under Secretary Stimson at Washington or at the Chinese Legation. I wonder whether you have written to either place. I am rather anxious to know because I want to make and complete arrangements down at Yale this summer.
Things for me this summer here at Middlebury are well arranged, I am taking three courses and vagabond as many more as I care to and besides I am being tutored three times a week. All the work are for reading and I am picking up conversation from speaking all the time. One has to speak French here at Middlebury during the summer, and besides all the courses will be taught in French, so that conversational French will not be missed although not taking a course in it.
I am going down to New York this week to see some of the alumni concerning the house, and I have also several dinners and engagements to attend. I expect to be there for not more than a week. Then I am coming back to Middlebury to get things ready for summer school.
My adress [sic] will be this summer
K. D. R. House
Middlebury, Vermont.
Please let me hear from you.
Sincerely
