This note and the reply that Yang's older brother cabled to the ship in support are documents lovingly preserved in Yang San-lang's old home. They show Yang's resolve and his courage to live by his ideals and also the path-breaking efforts that the first generation of Taiwanese artists took in establishing a place for artists in Taiwanese society.
這張信箋及長兄拍到船上表示支持的電報，如今彌足珍貴地保存在楊三郎的故居裡，述說著楊三郎不畏艱難，為理想闖蕩的勇氣；也說明著第一代老畫家開拓台灣美術風氣的拓荒精神，奠定畫家角色的功勞。
