1947年元旦胡适给我父亲写了一封短笺,现抄录在下面:“锡予兄: 沈崇案完全胜诉,被告强奸罪成立,敬闻。适之丁亥元旦” 说起运封信的保存,纯属偶然,在“文化大革命”初,为了怕惹事,我把胡适、傅斯年、陈寅恪、熊十力等等先生给我父亲的信通通烧了。那么这封胡适的信(照片)是如何保存下来的呢?正好1947年元旦那天我的同学狄源沧到我家,我在父亲桌上看到了这封信,狄兄会照相,我就请 New Year’s Day in 1947, Hu Shi wrote to my father a short note, is now reproduced below: "Tin Yuk-brother: Shen Chong case complete victory, defendant rape was founded, respect. Preservation was purely accidental. In the early days of the Cultural Revolution, for the sake of fear of provoking things, I burned my father’s letter to Hu, Fu Si, Chen Yin Ke, Xiong Shi Li and others. So how did Hu’s letter (photo) be preserved? Just on the New Year’s Day in 1947, my classmate Di Yuancang came to my house. I saw this letter on my father’s desk.
