May 3, 1916.
I got a lot of linen hats and Chinese umbrellas to keep the sun off the patients when they are out of doors.
The two Canadian nurses are a joy to work with, for they have had splendid training and are the kind that will go till they drop.
We have a wounded German prisoner who was brought in three days ago. The poor boy had to lose his right arm, and was at first terrified of every one. He expected to be ill-treated, but now that he sees he gets the same treatment as all the other patients he is happy and contented and very glad to be with us. I thought if I ever saw a German in these regions I would be capable of killing him myself, but one cannot remember their nationality when they are wounded and suffering.

I am sending you a photo of the Queen of the Belgians, who visited us and was very nice; she spoke so highly of the Canadians and of the splendid work they had done.
