Miss Helen Jurewicz,
Central Nurses' Residence,
nelfare Island, new York
my dear Miss Jurewicz:
Thank you for your letter of February 24 and your understanding
of the situation.
The possibility of a June sailing is the most definite thing we
have had yet. Our hospital buildings and equipment are now moving and
it is by the schedule given for this that we are better able to judge
the time of sailing for the greater part of the nursing staff. We must
remember that the country to which we are going is at war and uncertainty
is to be expected.
The enclosed yellow form, 615 A, is a report required by all new
American Red Cross employees and is riled in another department; hence
the necessity of asking you to answer questions most of which you have
already answered. Will you submit on the enclosed expense voucher with
receipted bills the cost of your immunization and x-ray and also passport
fee and cost of passport pictures so that you may be reimbursed. Enclosed
you will find instructions regarding payment of salary, etc. We would
appreciate an early return of these two forms.
For your interest, I an going to a.ks for 5 Pounds per month for
personal requirements in England. I feel that this sum together with
what I take with me will be ample.
Regarding luggage, if you have two pullman size suit cases, you
should be able to get all your things in. However, mine are smaller,
so I am going to take a week-end bag as well.
Sincerely yours,
8
