My dear Tu:
Here is the check for $25, as requested, $10. for incidentals and $15, to cover the trip to Syracuse, if you decide to take it. Please return the receipt promptly.
I think I have already sent you a detailed statement of, your account up to November 28th. The books show that at that time you had overdrawn your account by $354.86. Your additional expenditures since November 28th have amounted to $487.90* making a total of $842.76. In the meantime a check was resolved from your father on December 22nd amounting to $600. That means that at the present time you are $242.76 in arrears. You can understand, therefore, why I am so eager that you should keep your expenditures within bounds. If your father cares to send me more money for you to spend, I am perfectly willing that you should spend it. Since he evidently does not wish to do so, I am equally clear that I have no right to borrow ahead for you, as I have been compelled to do almost from the date of your arrival.
Faithfully yours,
Mr.K.Y.Tu
