Mr. Chang Sim Yung &#13;
46 Si An Nan Street&#13;
Peking, China&#13;
&#13;
My dear Mr. Chang:&#13;
&#13;
Your boy is leaving us this fall to enter Yale University, and it seems only proper that I should send you a word expressing our genuine regret at losing him from our number and our appreciation of the spirit and accomplishment of the boy while a member of this school. I have always found Sinley a gentleman in the best sense of the word, faithful in his endeavors, and responsive to every suggestion offered for this welfare. Although it is, of course, proper that he should go on with college work at this time, it is with a feeling of keen personal regret that I am forced to see him sever the Andover connection. In my judgment, Sinley is a boy who has within him the possibilities of becoming a strong and helpful influence in the home land when he returns. If he holds to the ideals which appear to have controlled his purpose and action to date, you should have reason to be proud of him in the years to come. Although the boy is no longer a member of the school, I shall be ready and glad always to did him or you in any way I can to insure that they American education and experience shall be as valuable as possible to the boy. &#13;
&#13;
With personal regards, believe me&#13;
&#13;
Very sincerely yours. &#13;
