 4519 West Fifteenth Avenue
Vancouver, 8    B.G*
September 12, 1952
Bear E.C.F. :
I was so sorry to hear of the family bereavement* I am sure that you were a
tower of strength to them all and especially to your brother*
Plans for the eastern journey have undergone some unexpected changes but now seem to be
clearing up a bit* If all goes well, I leave Vancouver for Mew York on September 23
and rather to my consternation (and greatly to my  surprize) I am to give the Commence-      ^
ment address at the Cornell University - I ew York |Iospital School of ^ursing on September*Ha .
these exercises marking the seventy-fifth anniversary of the original NHffSchool# The idea
apparently is that I should provide a footnote to history hy  describing the stirring days
from 1929 to 1931 when the transfer was being made to the new environment under the guidance of some of their most distinguished alumnae. JEJ acted as midwife at this birth and
now they think they are ready for a case history* Anyway, that is what they are g&ing to g
get — slightly expurgated, of course, and mellowed,'5by time*
After that, I expect to go on to Baltimore for what I sincerely hope will not be more
than a week or so. However, conferences are already looming up and it may be longer*
Then back to lew York before heading for Montreal and Quebec if the Carringtons are
oing to be at home.  She Canadian dates will fall on or about October 17 to 24 but
^:
will be affected one way or another hj  what happens at Baltimore*
I am sorry to be so indefinte but will keep in touch with you as the situation clarifies itself*  I should be very grateful if you could help me to get hotel accommodation
at what may be rather short notice* More about this later*
0H,TH3$£iii IS SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT*  CABBAGES AMD KIIFGrS ASH  SOCIAL GEEDIf*HOf

THE GESHTIV1 HIHOEITY*
