Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Prof. Charles D. Tenney, September 3, 1903

Typed letter sent from Alfred E. Stearns to Prof. Charles D. Tenney. Will find accommodations for the two students. Enclosed two blank applications. Hopes Tenney will come to Andover to discuss arrangements.

Sept. 3, 1906

Prof. Charles D. Tenney Cambridge, Mass.

My dear Mr. Tenney:

I am pleased to learn from your letter of the first inst. that we are to have two of your
Chinese wards with us this coming year. I shall be glad to arrange for the boys as satisfactory accommodations as possible, though I am not sure that at this late date I can find both rooms and board in a house where other conditions are what I would most desire for them. The Chinese boys whom we have had here during the last three years have regularly boarded outside of the house in which they have roomed, as most of our boys are accustomed to do. Still I have in mind one place which may prove satisfactory, and I will take up the matter at once and advise you of the results later.

I am enclosing two application blanks which I shall be pleased to have the boys fill out carefully and return to me at their early convenience. In the meantime, if you are able to come to Andover yourself I should be very glad to go over the situation with you carefully and I think we should be able to make arrangements that will prove satisfactory to all concerned. I expect to be here until Saturday noon, at least, and from the following Monday noon on through the week.

Very sincerely yours,

[signature]
