Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Mary Sun, Elmira College, February 4, 1928
Dear Mary: Your letter reached me last night, and as I am leaving town shortly for a week-end at Amherst, I can only send you a brief word now. Please don’t talk any more nonsense. I am sure the college authorities are not going to flunk you out without more warning than I have had; in fact I have had nothing whatever to indicate that they were dissatisfied with your work. Go to see your friend the Dean at once and talk things over, and please don’t talk any more nonsense like that in your letter until you have some real grounds for concern. I, too, am sorry indeed that we have not heard from your father approving the proposed course in nursing. I shall write him again on this point, though I am afraid he may get a bit impatient with me and think perhaps that it is really none of my business. In the meantime there is only one thing to do, and that is to continue with your present work and do it just the best you now how. That much I am sure I can count on you to do, and it is the only course that will get you anywhere in the long run. Ever sincerely yours,
Letter from Mary Sun, Elmira College, to Alfred E. Stearns, February 2, 1928

Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Thomas Sun, Middlebury College, February 8, 1928
Dear Tom: Thanks for your note and the report on your last marks. I wish all of them were as good as the mark in Public Speaking and Debating. You always were good at the arguing business, especially when you found yourself in need of a little cash. If you will put a little of that "pep" into your other studies, I am sure that you can raise the grades there also; though I am not finding fault by any means, for they might have been a good deal worse, and on the whole I have been immensely satisfied with your record at Middlebury College to date. With every best wish for continued progress and success believe me Faithfully yours,
