Letter from Florence Nightingale to Alice Green on September 21st, 1884 talking about Green's Girton application for mistress-ship and hoping to see her.

Item

Transcription: Claydon House Winslow, [Buckinghamshire] September 21/1884 My dear Mrs. Green I remember that you were to see Dr. Brunton on the 17th, and that you were so very kind as to say that you would have mercy on anxious me, and tell me generally what he said about your health question. I dare not write any more about Girton – tho’ you may be sure it is
never far from my heart or head. I shall be at 10 South St. shortly - I cannot quite say when, on account of my sister who has been suffering more since the hot weather ceased. But I trust you will allow me, when I come, to claim your kind promise of seeing me. God help the right, in which right you stay. I wish I could say as much. Ever yours, F. Nightingale

Winslow, [Buckinghamshire] September 21/1884
My dear Mrs. Green
I remember that you were to see Dr. Brunton on the 17th, and that you were so very kind as to say that you would have mercy on anxious me, and tell me generally what he said about your health question.
I dare not write any more about Girton – tho’ you may be sure it is never far from my heart or head.
I shall be at 10 South St. shortly - I cannot quite say when, on account of my sister who has been suffering more since the hot weather ceased. But I trust you will allow me, when I come, to claim your kind promise of seeing me.
God help the right, in which right you stay.
I wish I could say as much.

Ever yours,
F. Nightingale
