Dear Mrs. Maher:

I talked to Mildred Farnham, your daughter, today and she is feeling much better than when she came in. She is in our Hospital receiving treatment, and she said she does not have the pain in her back any more.

I do not know just when she will be moved to the sanatorium, but we are trying to make arrangements so she will go as soon as possible.

You may be sure that Mildred is getting the best of care, and is in good spirits. She would like you to write to her.

Sincerely Yours,

Miriam Van Waters, Superindendent
