My dear Dr.Stearns
I thank you for your kind letter of the 17th, March which I have just received. I wrote you on the 27th.March and in that letter I think I spoke of what I have in mind about Mary and that I would leave it to your kind decision. From what you say about Mary being depressed etc. makes we wonder if her nervous state will be able to stand the strain of nursing work particularly in operations and dressing of wounds.
If you couId try and influence Charlie away from his desire for a military career I would be very glad indeed. As to what you say about Norwich University I am glad to know it. What I wrote you came from the best American scholastic people here and it looks as if they need to have their records brought up to date. I am glad you share my views and judgment about Charlie and I hope he will be ready to give up the idea of a military career.
It is very nice to know that Tommy is doing good work at Middlebury. As to Arthur I told you in my last letter about his taking up a position in Shanghai and being happy in his new work. He desires to be most kindly remembered to you.
You do not mention it in your letter but I take it that the remittance which you should have received in January reached you safely.
With cordial good wishes,
I remain,
Very sincerely yours,
C.Y.Sun
