But that is \"not up\nto me\" as the boys say. What I would like\nto do would be to remain in this position\nuntil next October then go into a French\nfamily for two or three months and travel\nfrom January until March or April and have\na job in the States that I could go back to\nat that time. So please be on the look out\nfor me. It does not necessarily have to be\nalong nursing lines, in fact, I would like to\nget away from that for a time. I am going to\nask you to keep this confidential as I have\nsaid nothing to any one here and will not\nuntil something definite is decided. Miss\nLeet is very anxious to get rid of me, I\nthink, for I know too much of the past to\nsuit her, and she makes me feel my position\nwhenever she can. That does not hurt me for\nI have my position and have my friends outside\nbut it is not pleasant to work where there is\nno esprit de corps.\nMrs. Greeley is at the Club\nand seems to be enjoying Paris. I have seen\nvery little of her for she is on the go much\nof the time.\nMiss Kaltenbach says she has\nsent you a story of the training school of\nthe hospital. I have seen a good deal of her,\nlately, for I have had a pathetic case of\ndementia precox out at the hospital and they\nhave been so good about keeping her. Yester-\nday afternoon (Sunday) I spent getting her\nout to a clinique for mental cases. We had\nto restrain her and take her in an ambulance.\nI sincerely hope that sort of case does not\ncome my way again in a hurry. It is the second\nmental case I have had lately.\nDo write and cheer me with one"
