My dear Tu:
I have just received a letter from your father, telling me of his desire to have you return to China early this summer. He tells me that he has a position for you with the Kiangnan Dockyard at Shanghai or possibly at the Naval Dock at Foochow. Frankly, I am heartily in accord with your father’s decision and feel confident that it would not be fair to him or to you for you to remain longer in this country doing the kind of work you have been doing to date.
I don’t need to dwell on this, for you already know my attitude. If, however, you care to come out some time and talk the matter over with me in person, I shall be very glad to have you do so.
With kindest regards, believe me
Very sincerely yours,
Mr. K.Y.Tu
