Dear Mary: I have received and read with interest your letter of recent date. Here is the check, as requested, to cover the May allowance. A word about that suggested visit to Abbot. I want to play fair with you and everybody concerned, and, as I told you, I am perfectly willing and have been for a long time that your Abbot friends should visit you on the customary visiting days. I believe some of them have done so during this present week- That, however, is a different matter from the proposed visit to Abbot. In view of the attitude and actions of some of the Abbot teachers and authorities who, knowing nothing whatever of my correspondence with your- father, undertook to dictate the course you were to pursue and, in consequence, made the whole situation exceedingly uncomfortable and hard for me, forcing even a trip to Washington for consultation with your Minister there, and in view of the further fact that, since the truth of the matter became known to them, there has been no single word of apology or indication of such, I cannot in self-respect sanction such a visit as proposed. If it seemed best for you to leave Whittier for the week-end, I should be glad enough to have you come to the house and invite your friends to see you there. As it is, I do not think you ought to leave school for the week-end in question. In order to find out the exact situation, I telephoned Mrs. Russell and found that not more than half the school is to be away. This, I understand, is to be a general week-end for as many as desire it in order to avoid absenses scattered through the term. As you are already planning to invest one week-end in a trip to Bowdoin, you will be as well off as the other girls without taking this week-end. Further, I am sure that some worth while school work can be done if you stay, and you must remember that it is still an open question whether you are going to have enough work on hand to gain admission to college in the fall. I hope you will understand fully my position, for the request in itself is natural enough and I should love to grant it if I felt that I could do so in fairness to all concerned and for your own best interests as well. We are still corresponding with Elmira and will let you know the moment anything definite and final can be determined. With all good wishes, believe me Very sincerely yours. Dr. Alfred E.

Sao-Ke Alfred Sze The Chinese legation Washington, D.C. My dear Mr.Sze: In response to your recent communication I wired you at Odessa as follows: "Thanks for message. Very grateful if you can arrange for Mary Sun’s summer at Elmira in home of some reliable teacher as suggested in our last conversation. Have delayed formal application for admission pending advices from Mary’s present school as to subjects she will be qualified to offer for entrance. Expect to have this within next few days. Summer tutoring probably necessary in any case.” I hope that this message reached you safely and that you gathered its meaning. As to Mary Sun’s telegram, which you were good enough to send me, the reference to Robinson is in connection with a contemplated visit of Mr. Arthur Robinson, Y. M. C. A. Secretary at Tientsin and a very close friend of Mr. Sun, who has been here once before to discuss the problems of these children with me and who Mr. Sun writes is coming again this spring to talk over with me further the plans for the future. During the uncertainty connected with the further work of Mary Sun and her brother Tom I have written both Mr.Sun and Mr. Robinson and have asked them to discuss together the contents of these letters, since I thought that I might be able to make myself a little clearer to Mr. Robinson than I could to Mr. Sun and that he would be able in consequence to enlighten the latter. I imagine that Mr. Robinson may appear at almost any time now, though I have not heard from him for some weeks. A word about the Elmira situation. I hope to have full information within the next few days from Mary’s present teachers so as to be able to give the Elmira authorities as complete information as possible as to Mary's fitness to enter anti carry the work there. In the meantime I hope that you will be able to secure from your friends in Elmira an endorsement of some reliable member of the faculty who will be willing to take Mary into her home this summer and give her such instruction as she may need to round out her preparation. This seems to me to be distinctly the best plan I can think of for Mary's summer and, if I remember rightly. It is one which you originally suggested. My main concern is that the family selected should be of the right kind and supply Mary a home with refinement and culture and reasonable oversight. I dislike exceedingly to burden you with a matter of this kind, and I can never tell you how deeply I appreciate the help you have given me thus far. With kindest personal regards, believe me Very sincerely yours. Dr. Alfred E.

It was nice of you to accept the Abbot Academy decision in the good spirit in which you did, for I know you wanted to go, and I know, too, that I would have loved to have you go if only the Abbot people had played fair with me and you in the past. When you get to Almira, I hope that we shall have no misunderstandings of the kind that have troubled us in the past. I hope to hear from Elmira within the next few days, as I am sending them a preliminary application in your behalf, and Mr. Sze who was out there only this last week, wired me that he, too, would make inquiries.
