Dear Dr. Stearns, Your kind letter of October 14th with a copy of Kong’s account reached me a few days ago and I thank you deeply for your kindness of letting the account stand as it is until the exchange may turn more favorable. However, I wish to settle the matter and hearwith enclose a draft for U.S. $116, but I want to thank you for your thoughtfulness all the same. Kong is now learning in an English news paper office for several hours a day under Mr. Hollington K. Tong, who is the Managing Director of the paper and whom you perhaps remember as he was my secretary during the trip around the world. As to the situation in Manchuria we cherish no other hope than that justice will prevail and that right will overcome might. I am glad that I am serving my Alma Mater and have an opportunity to do my bit for the country. I heartily thank you for your good wishes for my success. I am looking forward to the time when we may meet again. I can find no words adequate enough to express my gratitude to you for having done so much for my son during his school days in the States. With my best wishes to you and yours. Very sincerely yours. Admiral H.K. Tu Dr. Alfred E.

Mr. Poynter wrote me under date of June 29th an answer to my letter to you about John Mitchell, but it did not fully answer the point upon which I wish to get your advice. He stated that you had not said that John could not come back in the fall but had merely written advising against his prospective room-mate. I realized that you were going to let him come back, but what I wanted to get was your personal opinion as to whether it would be wiser to send him to some smaller school for a year before having him return to Andover. I believe that Mrs. Mitchell will be guided wholly in this matter by whatever you advise and will probably send him for next year, if you think it best, to any school that you may name. I should be sorry, however, not to see him take his last; year or two at Phillips. If he is going back to Andover in the fall, I should suppose it would be advisable to have him tutored for at least a month and he ought to start in at once. I wish you would write me what you would do if he were your own boy, and I think Mrs. Mitchell will follow whatever you say. Hoping for word from you soon, Faithfully yours, Mr. Alfred E.

I spent Sunday in Milwaukee with Mrs. Mitchell who had just returned from Japan. She was very anxious as to the best plan for John, and we talked the situation over at length. I told her that I would write you about the matter or would see you soon in Andover. She too is inclined to think that it might be wise to have John go to some small school for next year and then perhaps to return to Andover for the last two years. Both she and I know so little about such matters that I am inclined to follow absolutely any advice which you may have to offer. I understand that your brother has a small school, or perhaps you may know of some other place which you would recommend for John for next year. My own idea is that if there is any prospect at all of his getting along in Andover that he might better stay there, but I am going to follow what you think best, and I wish that you would write me very frankly what your idea is. I expect to be in Boston next week, and if you think it worth while will be glad to come out and talk the matter over with you. I understood from your former letters that you considered that the only trouble with John was his inability or unwillingness to apply himself and that it was not in any way a tendency to wildness. If we should decide to have him go back to Andover in the fall, I will of course follow your suggestion about arranging for another room mate and would be glad to do whatever you think best toward having him retain a single room or toward his going in with some other boy whom you may have in mind. Please do not hesitate to say or advise anything which you may have in mind, and I am sure that Mrs. Mitchell will fall in with what you write. Faithfully yours Mr. Alfred E.

Stearns to Charles Sun, London, October 31, 1930 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Charles Sun, London, October 31, 1930 Relation A related resource Dear Charlie: How good it seems to hear from you again and especially to know that the forbidding fog and dampness of London are not weighing quite so heavily on your spirits as they did at first. I confess that I doubt whether I myself could have made the adjustments necessary if I had been in your place even so soon as you have done. London does not appeal to me a bit, I must admit, but then, I have never been there with a real job on my hands and one can bear almost anything when one is busy. Mary is rounding our [sic] her course at the School for Nursing at Yale, and from all I can learn, is getting along well. She writes only occasionally, to be sure, but always in a happy vein. Her work interests her, and I hope she will be able to continue in the general line when she returns to China, even though I know your father is not enthusiastic about it. Personally, I don’t see how any one could find a better avenue for rendering real service to China than through this channel. No, Tom isn't at Columbia, but at Yale, taking advanced work in Economics and in accordance with his father’s wish. He is not a bit happy there, though, for he finds the life and contacts very different from the intimate and friendly ones he enjoyed in Middlebury. I imagine that he will get adjusted in time, but he is pretty gloomy about it at present. What you write me of the old Andover boys in China is immensely interesting. Do remember me to them when you write if you have occasion to, for I will never lose my interest in them. Poor Quincy - I fear he has had a hard time of it. His last letters to me, though I haven't heard from him recently, expressed keen disappointment, chiefly at the seeming lack of intellectual ambition in his pupils. Further, he was only getting a bit of his pay occasionally, and not all of it at that. As for Charlie Tsai, I haven’t heard a word about him since he went back home. I am afraid he would have to be classed with Tommy Tuan, though perhaps as he gets a bit older, he will develop balance and purpose. So here are greetings from your old and still constant friend in America, and with them every best wish for the days and work ahead.

As a matter of fact, I yielded to Tom's pleadings only after I had given the situation long and careful thought, with the understanding that an old and second-hand Ford was to be bought and turned in at the end of the summer when Tom starts his university work. The further stipulation was that the car was to be had only on condition that Tom was to remain at Middlebury for his summer's work, though of course this does not debar him from spending a small portion, at least, of the vacation period with you if that can be arranged. If I find that Tom's expenses are running up unduly because of the possession of the article in question, orders will go forth to have it cashed in at an early date.
