Sir.
May I respectfully bring to your special notice-my case (as mother of deceased) Staff Nurse Annie Cox.
She contracted Lethargic Meningitis after Influenza. Was ordered complete rest and change. She arrived home practically to die as she went to bed next day from which she never rose and died 06-February-1919. She cost me more than I could afford, comforting her, and funeral expenses. She was buried 08-February-1919. May I beg that at least the funeral expenses be refunded to me. She was a great loss to me in every way. Are Nurses on some ----------as soldiers?----some kind of allowence?
Mrs B Cox. Mother.
