My dear Miss Greenwood,
I was surprised to hear that Dr. Stearns had gone to Europe. I thought that I would have been informed of that fact should he planned to go there.
I am sorry that you do not think that Mr. Hopper will advance me the money to buy the car without Dr. Stearns sanction. I have talked over the matter with him this Christmas when I was in Andover, and he was all in favor of it. He told me that I may buy one, a Ford, after the new models come out. The new ones came out this Christmas. The only reason that I want to buy it now and not later is the fact that the demand for cars are now low, and hence the prices of them are also low. But when Dr. Stearns comes back from abroad, the time will be the most important time, because all the people will want to buy cars, and hence the price will go up. To buy cars now is most economical at this time of the year.
I hope that you will give the matter another consideration. I have talked with Dr. Stearns concerning the car which I plan to buy this year after my graduation from Middlebury this Mid-Years. Now I have graduated. He gave me his consent concerning the same, and I was going to wait till now to ask him for the money for it.
Sincerely yours
Thomas Sun
