Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Chang Pah Lung Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Phillips Academy Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource July 28, 1920 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource All Rights Reserved By Phillips Academy Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Correspondence Relation A related resource Tientsin, 28th July, 1920 Dr. Alfred Stearn, Phillips Academy, Andover, Mass U. S. A. Dear Dr. Stearns, My friend Mr. M. T. Liang wrote about two months ago requesting you to be the guardian of my boy, Chang Shao Ling, now named Harvey S. L. Chang whose photo was sent you in the same cover, I have not as yet had the pleasure of hearing from you that you would do me the favour to undertake the guardianship, but Mr. Liang assures me that as you are always interested in the good training and fine education of Chinese boys, your affirmative reply is on way coming here. It is needless to say how I felt satisfied and appreciated by my friend’s recommendation to place the boy entirely in charge of you, a learned and virtuous gentleman who will take a fatherly interest in this youngster. Harvey was 15 years of age last month and has just finished his freshman year in Tsing-hua College, Peking. I think he has to study for some three years in your school before he will be qualified to join a College in America to pursue along a special profession. At present he has some inclination to learn civil engineering but he may change his mind later on. In course of time you will be a better judge than he or myself as to when he may be admitted to a College and what profession would fit him best. The following are the books which he has studied or is studying:* Nesfield’s English Grammar Series (1, 2, A, 4)  Brewer's Oral English Elson's Grammar School Reader (Book 4) Lamb's Tales from Shakespeare Stevenson's Treasure Island T. A* Quiller-Couch's Historical Tales from Shakspeare Hall and Knight's Elementary Algebra Wentworth's Elementary Algebra Barnard's A Hew Geometry for Schools Steele’s Popular Physics Stone Hillis' Plane Geometry Pease's General Science Renouf's General History Eraser and Squair's Abridged French Grammar Blouet's Intermediate French Wood-Working Apart from useful knowledge and learning to be acquired in a school it is essential that he should be given a training in high morals and ethics that he may become a man of fine charter. If you agree with me that he will learn more about all these in a good Christian family than in the dormitory, please let him board and lodge in a home which you will kindly select for him, I have requested Mr. F. M. Pyke of the Methodist Mission to call on you while he is spending his summer vacation in Massachusetts, to acquaint you with my desire in this respect. He may make some recommendation and suggestion but nothing is final without your approval, Harvey has not been baptized but I feel inclined to think that he believes in Christianity, I have given him freedom to choose a religion provided he would be sincere in what he believes. Eventually he may be a Protestant. I am remitting to you through First National Bank of Boston, Boston, $1,OOO* and beginning from 1921 a remittance of $750.- will be sent you through the same Bank every six months. I suppose this will be sufficient to cover all expenses including clothing etc and an allowance to Harvey as petty cash. The boy has no choice in the matter of buying necessaries and has to be satisfied with whatever allowance you may give him. Kindly see that he will practice economy and will not spend more than he ought to. My boy will leave from Shanghai on or about 23rd August by s/s "NANKING". The steamer may be due at San Francisco on 15th September. After stopping at the latter port for two or three days he will take train to Chicago and thence to Boston where a friend in Y.M.C.A will meet him and see that he will go safely to Andover. Now, Dr. Stearns, I hope I am not intruding when I write you such a long letter. My next will be handed you by my boy personally. I therefore close this, adding that I feel most grateful to you for all the trouble you will take in charge of my boy. Kindest regards. Yours sincerely, Chang Pah Lung Dr. Alfred E.

I am more deeply touched than I can ever express by this new evidence of the confidence which my Chinese friends are so ready to place in me; and I can assure you that I shall assume the new responsibility with real pleasure and with a full sense of the deep obligations involved. The real grip of the work connected with a position such as mine comes from the opportunity afforded to be of service to one’s fellow men, and particularly at the most impressionable age of life. When that service can be extended to include those from far-distant lands the pleasure and satisfaction which the work affords become only the greater. My past experience with Chinese students prompts me to look forward to this new responsibility with keen pleasure and anticipation. I have received from the first National Bank in Boston a check for $1,000.00 which I have deposited to your son’s credit, to be used for his expenses here, in the meantime I have made all arrangements to welcome the boy into my own home where I hope and believe that he will be happy. I can assure you that he will have the very best of care and that his problems will receive as thoughtful attention on my para an I would give to those of my own son.

Within the last few days I have learned frow Arthur Sun, and the other Chinese boys here of your great and unexpected sorrow in the loss your son and I hasten to extend say deepest and most sincere sympathy to you in the hour of your bereavement. Since I had so fully expected to welcome the boy into my family circle the loss is brought very closely home to me, and 1 can express therefore, a much deeper and more genuine sympathy than would have been possible under ordinary circumstances. Your sorrow, in a very real measure, has touched my own life, and in a sense colored the atmosphere of my own home. Accept, please, this sincere but wholly inadequate expression of sympathy and good will. Will you kindly instruct us just what you wish me to do in regard to the disposition of the money which you have placed in my hands, and which I had deposited to your son’s credit in our local bank, said sum amounting to $1,000. 00. I assume, of course, that you wish me to return the sum in question, and I am only wondering whether the transaction should be made at this time and under the existing exchange rates. I shall, of course, be governed entirely by your expressed wishes in the matter. You will be interested, I am sure, to know that I have, under my own roof, four Chinese boys and one girl; the four Suns and An John Kung, a late comer, whose brother was with us last year. We are having repairs made on the house, and are living in a great deal of confusion at the present time, though within the next two or three weeks we hope to get settled down to a normal and much more satisfactory life. It is a real delight, however, to have these youngsters from the Orient in the family circle, and they are already helping me very materially to renew my youth. I cannot conceive how more acceptable members for my household could have been found. In a sense, of course, you are responsible for the fact that they are with me at this time, and hence I am doubly glad to able to send you this word of appreciation. I am glad also that these visitors are themselves happy in the arrangement. Again assuring you of my deep sympathy in your great loss, and trusting that the privilege may yet be grunted of meeting you in person, believe me Very sincerely yours Chang Pah Lung Dr. Alfred E.
