Miss Ida Maude Britton,
Trumbull, Nebraska
a
My dear Miss Britton:
On
we sent you a Red Cross
nurse's cape. Please acknowledge receipt of it on the enclosed
March 7. 1941
card, at your earliest convenience.
We wish to remind you that the cape is at all times the
property of the American Red Cross and is only issued to enrolled
Red Cross nurses on active duty, to bei worn with the full regula-
tion uniform. The cape is not transferable and under no circum-
stances can it be loaned to another nurse. May we please urge
you to guard it carefully and protect it against improper usage.
When you are released from your present Red Cross assignment,
please have the cape cleaned and repaired, if necessary, before
returning it to this office. We shall greatly appreciate your
cooperation in this matter.
Cordially yours,
Gertrude Madley,
Chief Nurse,
American Red Cross-
Harvard Hospital Unit.
P.S. It will be better for you to take the stockings you like to wear
with you. I think it will be possible to buy lisle thread or
woolen ones in England, but not silk.
