Mrs. Frances Archer McCandlish
7523 N. Seeley Street
Chicago, Illinois
My dear Mrs. McCandlish:
Your application for enrollment in the Red Cross Nursing
Service has been forwarded to us by the Secretary of the Local
Committee. We are wondering if you have forgotten that you were
enrolled in the Red Cross Nursing Service in 1917. Your badge
number, according to your records, is 12906. Since we had not
heard from you for many years, your enrollment was annulled, but
your papers are still here at National Headquarters. Your new
application will of course bring your records uptodate.
We trust, however, that we may count on your cooperation and
that you will keep your records uptodate by filling out the annual
address questionnaire which the Committee will be sending you each
year. We assume you have your Red Cross pin and original appointment
card in your possession.
Sincerely yours,
Marie Peterson
Assistant to Director
Nursing Service
