Hy dear Mr. Chien:&#13;
&#13;
Your very interesting letter of July 4th was duly received. I shall show it to Mr. Steams when he returns to Andover the latter part of the summer. I am sure he will be glad to hear from you.&#13;
&#13;
I have forwarded your suitcase by express and trust that it will reach you safely in due time. I will also advise the postoffice of your new address.&#13;
&#13;
Sincerely yours.&#13;
&#13;
Secretary to the Principal.&#13;

&#13;
Mr. C.K.Chien&#13;
Davison College&#13;
Davision, N.C.&#13;
&#13;
My dear Chien, &#13;
&#13;
Your interesting letter of October 9, just a month old, deserves a much earlier answer than this. It is always a source of real pleasure to hear from you boys after you leave the school and to know where you are and how you are progressing. I hope you will find Davison College all you could desire and that you will be able to secure there that sound intellectual training and high moral purpose which, when properly combined, produce a real and much needed leader. You boys who are going to return to China in the near future have tremendous responsibilities resting upon you and a rare privilege, too, in that your countrymen will justly expect you to set standards and assume leadership which will enable China to secure justice at the hands of all nations and maintain her proper position of dignity and honor among the world’s families. I envy you your chance, difficult as your problem is bound to prove. &#13;
&#13;
I am sure your many friends here would join in sending greetings and good wishes to you if they know that I was writing this letter. Arthur Sun is in Tech, as you probably know. Lou is at Amherst, Chang at Yale and the rest of the group still with us here in Andover. She, Lin and two youngest Sun boys are still at my house. &#13;
&#13;
With sincerest good wishes for the days ahead, believe me always&#13;
&#13;
Faithfully yours. &#13;

Dear Dr. Stearns&#13;
&#13;
I am sorry to have to trouble you again. We received the credits of C. K. Chien in due time from your own academy, but he tells me he has a list of credits furnished from the Tsing Hua School of China. Will you not be good enough to send us a transcript of these credits at your earliest convenience that our records may be complete?&#13;
&#13;
I am enclosing stamped envelope for reply.&#13;
&#13;
Cordially yours&#13;

Mr. C.K. Chien,&#13;
Camp Shenandoah&#13;
Island Ford, Virgin&#13;
&#13;
My dear Chien:&#13;
&#13;
I am very grateful to you for your letter of August 10th. &#13;
&#13;
We have all, including the boys, just returned from the North Country and and are ready to tackle the work of a new year. I am going to show your letter to the boys and trust that some of them will write you of the fine times they have been having at their camp this summer.&#13;
&#13;
In the meantime accept my best wishes for the days ahead. Don’t forget your old friends in Andover whom I am sure do not forget you. Arthur Sun, as you probably know, is now at Boston Tech and Frank Lin hopes to enter this fall. Sheh and the two younger Sun boys are beginning this fall their second year in Phillips Academy.&#13;
&#13;
Ever sincerely yours,&#13;

Mr. Chang K. Chien&#13;
80 Eagle Street,&#13;
Troy, Kew York.&#13;
&#13;
My dear Chien:&#13;
&#13;
Many thanks for your most interesting letter. I am glad the world is using you so well and prospects ahead seem so bright.&#13;
&#13;
 If you are up in this section during the holidays do drop in on us for the annual Christmas celebration. We expect to have with us at that time whatever Chinese and other boys are stranded in Andover, and there will be a few of the former in any case, and among them some of your old friends.&#13;
&#13;
Wishing you all the best that life has to give for the days ahead, believe me.&#13;
&#13;
Sincerely yours&#13;
