Miss Frances Alice Bacon,
ce
Butterworth Hospital,
Grand Rapios, Michigan
My dear Miss Bacon:
Thank you for your letter of rebruary 25 and your understanding
of the situation.
It is better that you apply for your passport now. We mant to
feel that we have everything ready as fan as possible.
The enclosed yellow form, 615 A, is a report required by all new
American Red Cross employees and is filed in another department; hence
the necessity for 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 instractions regarding payment or salary, etc. We would
appreciate an early return of these tiro forms.
for your interest, 1 an going to ask for 5 Pounds per month 101
personal requirements in England. I feel that this sum together with
what I take with me sill be ample.
Regarding luggage, if you have two pullman size sit cases, you
should be able to get all your things in. However, mine are smaller,
so I an going to take a week-end bag as well.
The possibility of a June sailing is the most definite thing we
have had yet. Our hospital buildings and equipment are how 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.
Sincerely yours,
Gertrude Madley, Chief Nurse,
M/B
American Red Cross-Barvard Hospital Unit
