Miss Mary Sun
62 Paris Street
New Haven Conn.

Dear Mary:

Thank you for your good letter of April 30. I am more than pleased to learn that the work seems to be going better and that you have had a friendly word of approval from one of your teachers.

I am enclosing a check for one hundred dollars, though I cannot gather from your letter how much you actually need at the present time. If you can be more specific, perhaps I can do better than this. As the account book is at the house at the moment. I can’t tell you off hand how much money I have sent you since you were at New Haven. I paid your college bills direct, however, so that when that amount is added in, the sun will naturally be larger. Anyway, I will try to enclose with this letter a brief summary to show you just how much you have used in the New Haven venture.

With all good wishes, believe me
Very sincerely yours,
A3S/C M.

P. S. I find, that beginning with September, 1928, the following sums were sent to you and to the Yale Nursing School in your behalf.

Sept. 28 Mary Sun $100.00
Nov. 3. Mary Sun $200.00
Jan. 5 Mary Sun $50.00
$350.00

Oct. 10. Yale University $50.00
Feb.1 Yale University $125.00
$175.00

During the previous summer, however, I sent you on June 5 $500.00 and later on August 4, at your special request, $300.00. You intimated that most of the latter would be required for your equipment at Yale, so I presume it would naturally be included in the Yale expense.
