    "ocrText": "Extracted from letter from Miss Isabel M. Stewart, to Miss Noyes, Oct. 11, 1923.\n\" I have had an inquiry from Bishop Stearley of the Episcopal Church\nasking us to recommend a nurse for executive secretary and organizer for\nthe Guild of St. Barnabas. They are evidently going to undertake something\nlike a campaign to develop the work of the Guild and they wast a rather live,\nenthusiastic person who would be able to interest student nurses in the work\nof the Guild, and also secure the cooperation of superintendents of nurses and\ngraduates in the field. I met Miss Douglas here the other day, and it occured\nto me that she might be free, and might be just the person for this kind of work\nwould know whether it would interest her, and also whether she is especially\nqualified along those lines. The salary they offer is $2500 and travelling\nexpenses. The office will probably be here in New York.\"\nMiss Noyes' reply, Oct. 16, 1923.\nIt was very good of you to suggest Miss Douglas for the Guild of St. Barnabas\nShe would be an ideal person for that. She is a very staunch Episcopalian, a\nwell-bred woman, with many social ties, and at the sametime a loyal member of\nthe nursing profession.\"\nsee letter filed 512. Belgrade School."
