 Enviar a email | Letter from Jack to Kate June 1917 - with scan en General |  Por Pte Harry Lamin
el 04-Sep-2007 | I have found another letter that is, I am afraid out of order. It was filed with other material and I didn?t recognise its significance. This letter is from Harry?s brother, Jack to sister Kate. Jack was, at the time, an Anglican Clergyman in Hull in the North of England. Kate was a nurse in London. I have certificates in midwifery and ?hygiene? that could well have been a result of the exams

| Kate's Examination Results |  More searching has turned up the vellum certificate that Kate earned in her examination in June 1917. Her brother John had written to her giving advice on how to prepare for it. (He was a school teacher before he became a clergyman.) I'll link to the scan and transcript of the letter.
