                <text>My dear Mok:&#13;
&#13;
While I was coming back on the train from New York last week, I happened to talk with Mr. Ezra P. Rounds, a teacher at Exeter, who told me that his brother had some conversation with you at a bankers' banquet not long ago in China. When Mr. Rounds described the important position which you now occupy in business circles in your native country, I could hardly believe that you were the boy who once was an undergraduate at Andover, and when Mr. Rounds added that you had told his brother that the two happiest years of your life were spent on Andover Hill, I was very much pleased indeed. You are the kind of alumnus whom we like to turn out. &#13;
&#13;
I assume that you have kept somewhat in touch with recent events at your old school. Dr. Stearns, who resigned two years ago, has definitely retired and is in excellent health at his home in Danvers. Mr. Forbes, who succeeded him as Acting Headmaster, died on March 12, 1933, and I was shortly elected to succeed him. We have tried to carry on the tradition so familiar to you, and I hope that the Academy has not deteriorated in our hands. &#13;
&#13;
This is simply to wish you a very prosperous New Year and to assure you that I shall be glad to hear from you from time to time as to what is going on in your very interesting life. &#13;
&#13;
Cordially yours,</text>
