Dr. F. H. Packard McLean Hospital Waverley, Mass. My dear Dr. Packard: I am very grateful to you for your frank letter. In regard to Hin Wa Yang, but am sorry indeed to learn that the boy’s condition appears to be so serious. It will be some time before we can get in touch with the family in China; but in the meantime I feel that there will be no question about thse approval of Mr. Yung’s parents of the course we have taken and of their readiness to meet all proper financial obligations. At the coming meeting of our trustees, some two weeks hence, I shall ask authority to assume responsibility for the hospital debt, pending the receipt of advices from the boy’s home. Very sincerely yours, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns F.H.

Stearns, October 7, 1919 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from F.H. Packard to Dr. Alfred E. Stearns, October 7, 1919 Description An account of the resource Typed letter from F.H. Packard, Medical Superintendent for McLean Hospital, to Dr. Alfred E. Stearns detailing the condition of Hin Wa Yung. While it too soon to make a diagnosis, signs of dementia are prevalent. Mentions that the rate of board for the hospital is $50 per week. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource F.H.

Stearns, Phillips Academy, Andover, Mass. Dear Dr. Stearns: In reply to your letter of inquiry concerning Mr. Hin Wa Yung I am sorry to say that it is too soon to say anything very definite about him. Here at the hospital he has seemed fairly contented but he is somewhat suspicious and says that he hears remarks made about him, that there are moving pictures^ about who want to take his picture and make him an actor. He is occasionally noted, when sitting by himself, to smile as if listening to voices and he says that he hears people talk to him. Generally speaking hallucinations in persons of such clearness of mind as the patient shows are unfavorable symptoms and rather indicative of a beginning dementia praecox. While I am not ready to make this diagnosis as yet it seems a very probable one since so many of the Chinese in this country go to pieces in just this way. The adjustments to Western civilization seem often to be very difficult for them to make. I am unable of course to say anything about the duration of  his illness, not yet being able to make a diagnosis, but under the most favorable circumstances it would be likely to be a matter of months. The rate of board is $50 a week which covers practically everything and supplies the young man with a private room. Very truly yours, Medical Superintendent Dr. Alfred E. Stearns F.H. Packard Hin Wa Yung
