My dear Miss Turner;I certainly had a most delightful visit with you. The past week has been a very busy one for me and it was impossible to sit down and write. However you would understand it without my explanation. Words fail to express what a happy visit I had. Now I am ready to finish my little book. Just now I am writing a chapetr [sic] on tuberculosis which disease is the most prevalent in China. Since this week I have finished my two seminar papers.
Yesterday was our conversation for honor students. Grace Gorham was one of them. Out of eighty Chinese students five got honors also. Last night we had a little party for our honor students. Grace Gorham is going to have dinner with me today. I think that she is delightful as well as brilliant. There are two Mount Holyoke girls at our medical school and I have told them all recent news regard to college[.]
My good freind [sic] Mrs. Rankin died last Saturady [sic] evening. She has been a big sister to me all these years. She died of streptococcus encephalitis. My study this time has impressed me much of this micro-organism.
Kindly remember me to members of your department. What a fine congenial earnest group you have! Your advanced students get a more thorough course in Physiology than we medical students at this university.
With much love.
Yours lovingly,
M. I. Ting.April 27th, 1930.
