Dr. Stearns is on further leave of absence from the Academy and is spending the year abroad. The package of tea which you sent him for Christmas has been received, therefore, in his absence and will be held here until his return to this country. He will appreciate the tea and also your thought of him. and you will no doubt hear from him personally upon his return.&#13;
&#13;
Very truly yours,&#13;

                <text>My dear Mr. Sun:&#13;
&#13;
I have been a long time acknowledging receipt of your exceptionally interesting and friendly letter of February 20th. The delay has been due to the fact that I have been daily expecting the arrival of the box of Christmas presents referred to in this and earlier letters. Fate seems to have pursued your gifts, for, although due at the Christmas season, they finally put in an appearance at my home about three or four days ago. At the moment I happened to be absent in Chicago, but on my return I joined with the rest of the family in the expressions of the greatest pleasure over the beautiful articles which you have contributed to the furnishings of my study. They are altogether too good for me and, greatly as I shall always value then, and deeply as I shall appreciate the generous and friendly spirit that started them on their long journey, I can only hope that in the future you will not feel under any obligations whatever to send me anything more than the merest trifles, which I am sure will equally well convey your friendly good wishes and good will. I feel so completely unable to make suitable return for a gift of this kind that I can only hope that you will appreciate my feelings and understand my point of view.&#13;
&#13;
Mary and Miss Clemons have surely enjoyed the mandarin coats, though I am wondering if there could possibly not have been some mistake in the actual assignment. Mary's coat appears to be much the largest of the three, and the two smaller ones, I am afraid, are a little too small to be used comfortably by Miss Clemons. It occurred to me that perhaps the actual labels might have been changed inadvertently during the inspection at the Custom House. I was not at home when they were unpacked so I cannot be sure that the mistake was not made there. This is a matter of small consequence, however, and will doubtless be straightened out in due season, and to the satisfaction of all.&#13;
&#13;
Marjorie is still at school, but will be wildly delighted, I am sure, with your gift to her. If only you could visit us one of these days we should have the longed for opportunity to express, not only to you in person our appreciation and thanks, but to do something, perhaps, to make your visit to us and to America a never to be forgotten one, and in this way to repay you in some small measure for your many generous deeds and thoughts in our behalf. This seems to be about the best that I can hope for, but at least I can dream that the hope may some day be realized.&#13;
&#13;
I cannot understand the complications involved in the arrangements for Arthur's Tsing Hua Scholarship. I have kept after Arthur, and so far as I know he has done what the Legation representatives in Washington have asked. I have written to the Educational Mission there and have expressed my regret that no scholarship was awarded last year, and my inability to understand just why this was so. Only this morning I received a letter from Dr. Y.M. Kwai saying that Arthur had not returned the blank which had been sent him for information. I gave this blank to Arthur weeks ago and told him the importance of filling it out and returning it to Washington at once. He assured me that he would do this, and I am inclined to think that he has done so, though perhaps the document was delayed in the mails. This morning I wrote a pretty strong letter to Dr. Kwai; I hope, a perfectly fair one, expressing my inability to comprehend the difficulties which had arisen and which had now, for two years, debarred Arthur from receiving the scholarship, which had apparently been definitely been promised him long ago. Of course, I have written Arthur again today, sent him Dr. Kwai’s letter, and told him that if he has mislaid or for any reason not sent the information asked for to Washington, to do so without another moment's delay.&#13;
&#13;
You will be exceedingly pleased, I am sure, to learn that Charles has recently expressed his desire to be baptized and to join the Church. This is no sudden thought on his part, I am sure. Charles is serious minded, and thinks things out for himself. Evidently he has had this on his mind for some time, and has reached his decision only after most careful thought. I can’t begin to tell you, how pleased I am at this decision of his, and in fact, over all of his development since he has been with me. The boy ought to be an increasing source of comfort and delight for you as he is for me.&#13;
&#13;
Tom too appears to be developing well. His studies are better this last term. His spirit at the house is fine and I have had little occasion to complain. I do not think, however, that he will ever have quite Charlie’s ability, or that he will match him in many ways. With the boys he is perhaps the more popular of the two, but that is because he has a little keener taste for the fun and student activities of life than for the more serious and lasting things. From this I don’t mean to imply that Charles is not a normal boy when it comes to wholesome activities, or that Tom is over indulgent in these. I am sure you will appreciate what I have in mind.&#13;
&#13;
Mary, I must confess, is still something of a problem; doubly so because it becomes increasingly clear that she is not always frank and honest with us. Deeply as I regret to say it, there is a tendency to conceal, and at times actually to deceive, which leaves one with a very uncomfortable feeling, and the belief that efforts invested in her behalf are of questionable value. I shall watch the situation pretty carefully from now on for I do not believe that, in justice to her or to you, it would be wise to consider keeping up indefinitely the American connection for Mary unless there is to be, in the very near future, evidences of a determination and the ability on her part to overcome these weaknesses referred to.&#13;
&#13;
You refer in your letter to a remission of $5,000.00 of December last, to be credited to your four children and Quincy Sheh. The money was duly received, credited as requested, and formal acknowledgement of its receipt sent to you at the time. As your last letter bears the date of February 20th, the acknowledgement of the receipt should probably have reached you before the letter was sent. I trust, however, that it has been duly received ere this.&#13;
&#13;
Again assuring you of my deep appreciation of your many generous, friendly acts, and, with my kindest personal regards, believe me,&#13;
&#13;
Sincerely and gratefully yours,&#13;

Dr. Stearns has asked me to send you the enclosed accounts for Arthur, Charles, Mary and Thomas Sun and Quincey Shah. The balances on the accounts of Arthur and Quincey Shah have been held up to the present time to cover late bills that might possibly have been delayed in reaching Dr. Stearns, but these balances will be transferred to the accounts of the other children a bit later.&#13;
&#13;
Very truly yours,&#13;

My dear Mr. Sun:&#13;
&#13;
I am enclosing statements of the accounts of the children up to January 20. I have carried them to this date so as to include the latest remittance of $1,000.00 received from you at that time.&#13;
&#13;
As I have already explained, these accounts do not carry the details which were regularly included in the earlier statements, owing to the fact that I have recently, and since the children have moved farther away for their education, handed them lump sums to be banked and drawn on as occasions arose. I have asked them to keep careful accounts of these expenditures, which they have done, and these as well as other receipts will be sent to you if you so desire. Indeed I have filed receipts for all expenditures made by me ever since the children first arrived but have not felt that you would necessarily care to be bothered with them. If you should desire to have them, however, I shall be glad to take steps to have them forwarded to you.&#13;
&#13;
Very sincerely yours,&#13;
&#13;

&#13;
My dear Dr. Stearns,&#13;
&#13;
It has been my honor for the past sixteen years to write to you on this occasion conveying to you and Mrs. Stearns my most heartfelt greetings for a very Merry Christmas and a truly Happy New Year. I can not think of anyone to whom I owe so much and so deeply grateful for what you did toward the moulding of my children into manhood.&#13;
&#13;
Arthur is still with the City Government of the City of Greater Shanghai as its senior engineer, and Tom has left the Kailan Mining Administration in Tientsin this last summer and joined the Bank of China in Shanghai. He did so at a considerable sacrifice financially only because that it was thought that he might lie of greater service to the country by throwing his lot in with the premier banking institution of China thereby contributing his share in the economic development of the country. He has been appointed as an Assistant District Superintendent of the Head Office Business Department. Mary is still living in Peiping along together with my eldest son Edwin.&#13;
&#13;
This last year has been a trying one for me. My annual trip to Shanghai this last spring was the cause of my failing health. It was there that I was again taken seriously ill from which I have yet to recover completely. All energy left my erstwhile strong body to such an extent that at one time I could not walk even around the room without assistance. But. now I am immensely better and am able to sit up and write this letter of greeting to you and Mrs. Stearns.&#13;
&#13;
The political horizon in the Far East is not at all too bright. At this very juncture one dares not say whether there will be war or peace. But one thing is sure that the days are gone when China can accept provocations without recourse. Should hostilities break out, it can not be certain to what extent it will develop or in what direction. It will be terrible, but China is ready to a man.&#13;
I am taking the liberty to send to you under separate cover some embroidery as a remembrance as well as a token of my deep appreciation of a truly great man such as you. Knowing the uncompromising attitude of the Customs People of most nations, I have taken it onto myself to enclose herewith the voucher for the embroidery identifying it as an antique which it really is. I understand antiques can avoid duty payment. This voucher, being issued by an expert on such things, should avoid you unnecessary expenditure. I hope by this slight expression of my appreciation and gratitude to you, our friendship, even across the great ocean that separates us, will be everlasting.&#13;
&#13;
My children join me in sending to you and Mrs. Stearns our most cordial greetings of the season with a hope that the coming year will be one of happiness and contentment to a truly deserving man such as you.&#13;
&#13;
Most sincerely yours&#13;

Danvers,Mass.&#13;
July 12, 1933.&#13;
Mr. C. Y. Sun,&#13;
Tientsin, North China.&#13;
&#13;
My dear Mr. Sun,&#13;
Your very kind letter of June 4th. reached me several days ago and was most welcome. Letters from my Chinese friends are always a source of real pleasure to me; and none are more so than yours.&#13;
&#13;
Naturally to one who is so keenly interested in Chine as I am and who claims so many good friends there as I do the big things that have been happening in your country during recent months have a special appeal. It is all very bewildering to one so far removed from the scene of action and the results cannot be easily or properly appraised. One thing is clear, however, and that is that the sympathies of the American people as a whole have gone out without reserve to the Chinese and that Japan has lost immeasurably such confidence ad good will as she may have enjoyed in the past. Her prestige has been badly undermined. Just now when the efforts of all high minded men throughout the world have been directed towards the high goal of smoothing out international difficulties, breaking down international barriers, removing causes of International suspicions and distrust, and creating confidence and good will, it is distressing to find that any one nation is willing to undermine it all in pursuit of its own selfish ends. That at least is the way the thing looks to those of us who have to view things as they appear and who may perhaps be limited in their understanding of what is back of it all. How I should love to sit down with someone like you and get the first hand information that I lack.&#13;
&#13;
My interest in your children has not lessened an iota since they have returned to their home land. Indeed it appears to increase with the passing of the months. Any word from or of them will always have a hearty welcome. Sometimes I wonder whether they have received the letters and messages that both Miss Clemons and I have sent them from time to time. Our sympathy has gone out whole-heartedly to Mary in her affliction. Eary indeed has she been called upon to face the hard things of life. And what about Arthur, Charlie, and Tom? I shall always feel that these fine children of yours with whom it has been my privilege to share my home have a very special claim on my affection and good will. My prayers and good wishes will always follow them. And may their life and achievements bring only satisfaction and happiness to you. &#13;
&#13;
It is no easy task to get adjusted to my new way of living. My health, I am glad to report, seems to be getting better steadily and I now feel very much like my old self, though I cannot carry too much of a load without realizing my limitations. But I have always in the past enjoyed such good health and have so relished active and hard work that the change comes a bit hard. For the past few months I have been taking life very easily out here in the country enjoying limited exercise about the place in my garden and orchard. If conditions in China ever change to such an extent as to prompt again your countrymen to wish to send their boys and girls to America I should welcome the opportunity to be of help to them as I have tried to be in the past. My country home is only a dozen miles from Andover; the house is large and the grounds extensive; local public schools are good; and altogether I think I could supply attractive and helpful surroundings and conditions for those who,like your own children when they came to us, would require a year or two of home life and special training before going on to the higher schools like Phillips Academy. This probably is only a dream of mine; but you see that I miss the old contacts and that 1 should welcome the chance to be of some real service in the world during the years that are still left to me.&#13;
&#13;
I think I wrote you how thoroughly I appreciated and enjoyed the tea you sent me some time ago, and which, if my memory serves me, came while I was abroad last winter. If I did not I must apologize and explain my negligence as me to the generally upset and unstable condition in which I existed for some months after coming from the hospital. Lately I feel as if things were on an even keel again, and I hope to be able to be more business-like in the future. My new home offers me splendid opportunities to use to the best advantage the many beautiful things that my Chinese friends have given me in the past. I wish you could see them as they now adorn the walls and tables in my library and lining rooms especially. They 'furnish me constant and happy reminders of good friends who may be far away in actual distance but who are constantly in my thoughts and whose friendship is one of the best things that my life and work at Andover have brought me.&#13;
&#13;
Please remember me most warmly to all of the children and tell them how happy I should be to hear from them now and then. And believe me, with kindest regards to you personally and every best wish to all the Suns,	&#13;
&#13;
Yours most sincerely.&#13;

Tientsin, North China.&#13;
4th June, 1933&#13;
	&#13;
My dear Dr. Stearns,&#13;
&#13;
Your kind letter of the 10th of Feb. reached me at a time when one’s mind is filled with wandering thoughts of the present situation in the Far East. Henee, I hope that the tardiness of this reply may be pardoned.&#13;
&#13;
Your retirement from active service to the far famed Andover Academy must be a deep regret to the school and a loser to the Educational World. It will not be wrong to say that the school as a unit grew from the result of your pains-taking care year after year it is what is to-day. It is a school culminating the faithful services rendered to it by you. And now it is known and famed not only in the United States, but throughout the world.&#13;
&#13;
I can fully imagine that your resignation from the school must be a case much against your wish. But speaking from a sentimental view point, you can now sit back and enjoy the sight of young men hurrying everywhere in the world sharing the duty of good citizenship. You can also enjoy to see them, because of your efforts and long service, go out into the world to demonstrate the name of the "house that Dr. Stearns built." It is a feeling of pride in one’s heart that those young men in every way owe their education to their beloved and revered Head-Master Emeritus.&#13;
I trust that you have fully recovered from your operation and that you enjoyed your trip to the Continent. It is a well deserved rest and trip and I am sure that you derived every benefit from it.&#13;
&#13;
All my children join me to extend you our most sincere and warmest greetings.&#13;
&#13;
Most sincerely yours&#13;
