My dear Dr. Stearns:
I am in an uncertain condition of mind regarding the authority you give Mr. Tu to contract medical bills without consulting me. He has been down to see a physician in our town who has given him medical treatment on his foot for Eczema. The bill, as presented to me for a little over two weeks, was twenty-one dollars. I told the physician to stop the treatment until I am advised by you what should be done. Were such bills countenanced by you when Mr. Tu was at Andover? I am enclosing the bill and you can either send the check direct to Dr. Kober or mail same to me and I will see that he receives the same.
While writing, I might state that our school closes for the Christmas Holidays at norm on December eighteenth, and reopens again on the evening of January fourth. Our buildings are closed and we do not wish any student to remain here as we clean and renovate the rooms etc. Will you make arrangements for Mr. Tu to spend his vacation in Syracuse or New York where he has friends, and make the necessary financial arrangements sufficiently in advance so that he may be provided with finds?
The young man is working and conducting himself in a commendable manner.
Very truly yours
Dr. Alfred Stearns, Phillips Academy, Andover, Mass.
