Henry J. [Scudder?] To Dr. and Mrs. Cadbury. Hong Kong. 1919 12/17 [Letter says “Read and Destroy” at the top. Letter writer mentions Christianity and God multiple times, and wishes the Cadburys a Merry Christmas, which might be the reason for the “read and destroy” instructions at the top]

Unknown sender. To Tso Tin Taam. Canton, China. 1946 11/28 [First page of a letter describing medicine, food, and clothes sent from the friends of Direct China Relief]

Unknown sender. To Professor [Dr. Cadbury?]. Canton Hospital. Unknown date. [The letter is not written in English or Chinese, but a code-like language with symbols for letters. The letterhead, written in Chinese, is from Canton Hospital. The letter is likely dated post-WWI, but before 1949, due to the Chinese letterhead being written left to right, in the Western style of writing]

Bruce, Billy, and Jane. To Dr. Cadbury. St. Louis, MO. 1958 [Duplicate of telephoned telegram wishing Dr. Cadbury a happy 80th birthday]
