Extract from letter from Miss Adelaide Nutting, Teachers College, New York, to
Miss Fox.
September 11, 1919.
UI have directed to you this morning, a former Johns Hopkins student,
named
Ruth Waterbury. You probably know something of her and her work and will be
able to décide on the basis of first hand knowledge what should be done for her. I
was much touched by her story of her struggle for an education while at the same time
she had to meet responsibilities in her home and family. I hope the is the kind of
candidate whom we ought to help in every way in our power, and I am writing to Miss
Lawler for further information about her."
Extract from letter from Miss Van Duzor to Miss Nutting. September 16, 1919.
"Miss Waterbuty has signed an application for scholarship, which
undoubtedly will be approved. She was not just certain whether you planned to secure
a four months' scholarship wutside the Red Cross, alth we were to grant a four months
scholarship, so that she might take an eight months' course but we had her, sigh for
both courses, and we will be glad to give her which wver one she may need.
There seems to be something quite unusual about Miss Waterhury. Yester-
day she made a very favorable impression here. I wish all our applicants had just
half the "something" she seems to possess.'
