Notes: | 21/3/1902: Wagner, SRC Heilbron to CSRC: requesting that matron be moved as a result of friction with Dr Spong and staff. 'The matron has done good work in the Camp, being energetic & practical, but through her advanced age she appears to be out of touch with the young nurses and Doctors. I am perfectly satisfied with the way in which she has carried out the duties of Matron since she has been here & would be glad to retain her services, were it not for the disagreement which has occurred.' |
