(In her “Report to the Committee of the Distress Fund for South African Women and Children”, Emily wrote the following of her: “Two of the Boer girls who had been trained as nurses, and who were doing good work, are dead, too. One of them, Poppy Naude, was a universal favourite. She did not know where her mother was. Her father was in Norval’s Pont, and there had been some talk of my taking her to join him; but in the end she thought she was doing useful work where she was, earning 2s. a day, and she had better stay and nurse the people in Bloemfontein. I come back to find her dead. The doctor, the nurse, and all had said, "We can't spare Poppy."”
