My dear Mrs. Barkert
In reply to your letter of the 4th of
February about Miss Annie L. Williams, I an
folder to confidential, write of you Red that Cross the information always contained been in sorry the
a nurse has considered
and it is against the policy of the Red
Cross to give out this information to anyone except
the nurse herself.
In regard to the question you raise
about Miss Williams eligibility for a pension on
account of her Red Cross service during the last war,
I can tell you, in general, that Red Cross nurses who
were never federalized, or taken into the Army, are
not eligible for a pension.
If Miss Williams herself would like to
write me, I would be glad to send her any specific
information she would like to have.
Sincerely yours,
Mery Beard
