Jan. 6, 1920. Miss Elizabeth V. Duggan, 416 W. 122nd Street, New York, N. Y. My dear Miss Duggan: Your letter of January 2nd received, and in reply may I say that I was. sorry to learn that you may not be able to continue your second semester at the Teacher's College, as you know we are very much interested in all nurses wishing to qualify ei ther in Public Health Nursing, or as instructors in hospitals. You did not state whether or not you were taking the course to qualify as an instructor, or whether you were taking the course in Public Health. Your papers are still in the War Department so I am not in a position to determine whether, you are eligible for one of the Scholarships offered by the American Red Cross, and we shall be interested to know if it is for financial reasons that you are unable to continue. I am enclosing an application blank in the event that you decide it might be worth while making application for a scholarship, but of course we cannot guarantee that this would be allowed, until after all your credentials are considered. On the other hand, if you decide that you do not care to continue, there may be an opportunity later to consider your application for Service in Servia. Anticipating an early reply in regard to this scholarship, I am Sincerely yours, AGD/mcc Director, Dept. of Nursing.
