Letter · 7 Jul 1915 · Wellington, New Zealand
An errand of mercy
Extracts from this letter
"The ship is beautiful. 'The New Zealand Hospital Ship' it is and has been subscribed to by all the people of New Zealand and she is a great white huge monster - three great red crosses on either side and green stripes - she just looks like what she is - an errand of mercy for all you men - and very proud I am to be one of the staff"
"Its wonderful to think I am going on the ship 10 nurses to remain on board and 80 others are going to England to Military Hospitals and are travelling on ship."
