No. 1. Newchwang Road, Shanghai, China. 17th., September, 1919. Charles L. Freer Esq., 33 Ferry Avenue East, Detroit, Michigan, U. S. A. Dear Mr. Freer, I received your last letter duly and was glad to learn that the little present sent to you had been accepted. It, however, made me extremely sorry to hear of your being ill. I hope you have now fully recovered. I have been making steady progress with my paper mill and silk filature while the other enterprises have been free from loss. In spite of the unsettled condition of our country, the provinces of Kiangsu and Chekiang have not been effected directly. My leisure hours have been spent in my old habit of collecting drawings. But really good drawings and writings are getting fewer and fewer and dearer and dearer. Now-a-days it is not an easy task to collect good drawings and writings. As to the drawings which Mr. Seaouke Yue sent you there are really some good ones among them, but on account of the high prices
