Stry M MERICAN RED CROSS a LA CROCE RUSSA AMERICANA monthoms < u TELEFONO 49-64 A. a JUN 8 01919 T e Via MANZONI, 10 t (unny MILANO Buffalo, N. Y., A June 25, 1919. / Miss Clara D. Noyes, Acting Director, Red Cross Nursing Service, Washington, D. C. My dear Miss Noy es : I am enclosing you copies of letters which may be valuable in giving you information of matter which I will try to explain: I am making claim in back pay which, as you will see by letter, is due me from October 1 to October 19, in- clusive, when we were recalled in 1915 by the American Red Cross. AS you will see, this is all Red Cross. When the Red Cross recalled the Nurses, they were given Forty pounds ($194.66) for return expenses, and were given the privilege of returning home or remaining in service abroad. This latter I chose, and went later to the American Ambulance at Neuilly-sur-Seine, I remained a little over two years. From there I enrolled with the American Red Cross and went to Italy, January 1, 1918, and remained with the A. R. C. until we were recalled in April, 1919, when I returned to my home in Buffalo, N. Y. Since returning, I have been in communication with the Buffalo Chapter and, through the advice of Mrs. Richard Noye, the Executite Secretary, and Miss Kate I. Kennedy, Chair- man of the Buffalo A. R. C. Nursing Service, I am writing you asking for advice on the following questions: 1. The money coming to me from past salary for the month of October 1 to 19, (inclusive) 1915, which the enclosed copy will show (at $60.00 per month) I could not have sailed before that date, as there were no sailings; and, as Copy #1 shows, my expenses were paid up to that date. 2. How much of that expense money am I entitled to, according to Copy #2? As we were given the privilege of remaining abroad, what am I entitled to?
