Shanghai， 18th January， 1912
Dear Mr.President，
I beg to thank you on behalf of Mrs.Hardoon and myself for your kind invitation on Monday last and the cordial reception accorded to us which at Nanking.We have enjoyed our visit very much indeed and appreciate your kindness accordingly.
When your family come up to Shanghai， please give us the pleasure of welcoming them at our place， we have ample accommodation to put them up and Mrs.Hardoon will do her best to make them comfortable—Our place is also at your service and we shall be delighted whenever you honour us with a visit.Regarding a loan on landed property at Nanking， I find the banks have unwilling to entertain the idea at present， I shall however keep the matter in mind in case & favorable opportunity arises.
With kind regards and best wishes.
I remain，Yours Sincerely，
S.A.Hardoon
President Sun，Nanking

尊敬的总统先生：
请允许我代表我自己及太太感谢您在上个星期一的邀请及在南京热情的款待。此行我们非常愉快，也因此感谢您的好意。
等您家人到上海时，请赏脸由我们欢迎他们。我们有宽敞的地方供他们住宿。哈同太太一定会尽力使他们感到舒适。我们的房子也随时供您使用，如果您能惠顾来访，我们将感到十分荣幸。
关于以南京的不动产抵押贷款的事，我发现这里的银行家目前不愿意考虑这种打算。我会把这事放在心上，等有适当的机会出现。
致以美好祝愿。
哈同 谨识
致孙总统，南京。
