Letter from Florence Nightingale to an unknown man, 1855

Scutari

December 16, 1855

Sir

May I request that you will have the kindness on arriving at Balaclava to forward these two government nurses, each to her destination? Each bears a note to you naming the hospital to which she is bound.

With many apologies for the trouble which I am giving you.

I remain sir, your obedient servant,

Florence Nightingale
