gotiations with truly Oriental diplo-
macy, by enlisting the services of his
white patrons and friends in Los An
geles, and sending DR.. Wing letter
signed by many of them, which showed
not only DR.. Foo's present secure posi-
tion among his clients, but the prospects
for still further progress. This letter,
with the signatures. was as follows:
LOS ANGELES. Cal, Feb. 81, 1897.
DR.. Ii Wing, San Francisco, Cal.
Dear Sir: Since the first of the year
many people in Los Angeles section of
Southern California have signed their
names to paper to help DR.. Tom Foo
Yuen start an Oriental medical college
In Los Angeles. These names were pub
lished in the annual, or New Years edi-
ton of the Los Angeles Times and Her.
aid. A great many people in different
places have read these names in the
Papers, and many students would be
glad to come to Los Angeles and study
with DIR. Foo and learn from him the
Chinese system of medicine.
Everybody says, however, that the
college should have an associate physi-
clan in order to satisfy all the stu
dents. For a long time we knew of
your father, DIR. Ii Po Tai, whose
rame was known and respected
through all America, because of his
wonderful cures which he made. Now
we understand that his son, DIR. Ii
Wing, has succeeded to his fathers
practice and has a great deal of skill
He has been taught by his father how
to use the Oriental remedies, and is in
every way the proper man for that de-
rartment of associate physician.
For this reason we believe If Dr. l.
Wing would come to Los Angeles to
help DR.. Foo in the college everybody
would understand, and many would
make up their minds to start in as stu
dents. Some who have been thinking
of entering the college say as much
We would like to satisfy them in this
respect. and are very anxious to have
the Oriental College of Medicine start.
We therefore sign our names to this
paper, asking you to come here to help
DR.. Tom Foo Yuen in starting his col
lege, and we hope you will soon come to
Los Angeles for this purpose.
In this way you will help great many
people who would like to see this col
lege make a start, and by coming you
will please not only US, but many 9TH
ers.
