Blet Street\nChicago, Illinoie.\nMy dear dies Hay:\nI was very glad, indeed, to receive your letter, and mant to\nassure you right now that I am not responsible for the Gourier\npublicity. Indeed, we none of us look upon you as definitely\nretired, and if you eay 60, se will have the information in the\narticle corrected, or if you think best we will let it go.\nI will not do anything about it until 1 hear from you again.\nIn the meantime, I regret that I cannot give you the definite\ndate of Miss Torrance' e return. Te have looked up the corres-\npondence in her folder, and the last thing we find is 8 letter\ndated April 25th from Niss Noyes to Mies Torrance, in which she\nadvises Miss Torrance that she should arrange for her release\nfrom the School in Sofia immediately after her (Miss Noyes)\nvieit to the School. Our itinerary for Miss Noyes indicates that\nshe expected to reach Sofia on August 13th, leaving there on the\n88th or 20th, of August. She will arrive in Constantinople\nAugust 21at and she leavee Conetantinople for Anerica September 6th.\nI know that at one time Miss Noyes thought that it might be\npossible that Miss Torrance would return with her, but I doubt\nnow if she does, as Miss Noyes trip back will be a gong one.\nThe boat, 1 believe, takes three weeke and does not arrive in\nNew York until September 265h or 27th. I imagine Mise Torrance\nwill come back by a more direct route.\nI am, indeed, glad to hear of your improved health, and am\ninterested to know that you are considering a course of study\nin New York. There are so meny lines of work that I am sure\nwill be open to you. Mies Lyda Anderson has been writing to me\nabout the type of work in which ebe 058 interestod. She does\nnot seem to want to go back to a school at present, so I\nsuggested to her secretarial workin connection with the American\nNurses' association, or in connection with State Associations.\nI am also wondering if this new Committee for the Study of the\nGrading of Training schools will not have eome interesting\npositions to offer. Do keep in touch with us, and if there is\nanything further I can do about that article in the Courier, be\nassured that I will do it. With best wiehes\nVery trul yours\nIda F. Butler\nActing Director, Bureing Service\nTPR.I\nzof\nN"
