It was signed with your name, though it might have been dictated by some clerk. In ch cm. is to develop Miss Strycker was so hurt and wounded by the le tter that she made up her mind to ask nothing more of the Red Cross and it was only at the solicitation of many of her friends, when she reach- ed the point of almost to tal disability, so far as her profession was concerned, that she to ok up the matter. She was very foolish of course to let things drift simply because some one had written an unwise letter but- she did. My feeling now is that no matter what her peculiarities or short comings may have been, she did an unusually fine piece of serice, particularly in Italy and is practically incapacitated as the result of it. In view of the circumstances, as I have just told them, it would seem that technicalities should be waived and something definite done for her
