Dear Mary:
Thank you for your good letter of May 13. I am immensely interested in hearing of your work among the foreigners. It is a great experience, and you ought to be ready for about anything when you get back to China and work among your own people. From the fate at which they seem to be wounding each other over there, at present, you ought to have a lot to do. I do hope that the day may speedily come when these warring factions will stop their nonsense. and get down to the main task of straightening out China's troubles and putting the country soundly on its feet.
You are certainly old enough to make your own decisions now-a-days, and I am perfectly willing to have you go to Ithaca for your summer vacation if that is your preference. It sounds like a good proposition to me.
With all best wishes, believe me
Ever faithfully yours,
