C.\nMy dear Miss Delano:-\nI regret very much my in-\nability to help you regarding Miss Miginty, nor\ndo we know of any more nurses who returned on the\nRotterdam. As to Miss Miginty's returning to\nher original assignment, I do not know. As I re-\nmember it, I thought the letter I sent you said\nshe had gone to France but I maybe mistaken. It\nwas about the time that some of Dr. Murphy's group\nof nurses returned, but we did not have a list of\nthese women and two of them that we know of who\ncame back about that time have gone back to the other\nside, but where I do not know.\nI do not understand how nurses\nconscientiously take the money for coming back and\nstay here a week or two and then return.\nVery sincerely yours,\nMinim H Alerus\nSuperintendent"
