You write of first deciding if the two nurses would do and I somehow thought of it only as nurses work. If there is need for a doctor I think I would like to try but I must have something to live on. It is not right to undervalue a doctor&#8217;s service too much. My opinion here is that a Thespian[?] will gain very little hearing or respect of the people by giving too much to them. They will call the man from Harlan or Pineville who charges $25 &#8211;! I would like very much to go to Pine Mt. on Sat of this week. If weather permits I shall try to do this. It sounds very\u00a0 &#8230;?&#8230; and cold tonight so I may have to postpone the trip until next week but I shall try to make it very soon. I hope you will not need to decide before then, but if you are in a hurry will you please write me fully about[?] salary and why outfit?&#8230; for a physician is there.<\/p>\n<p>Very sincerely<br \/>\nLewella Merrow<br \/>\nFriday 10th [1926]<\/p>\n<p><strong>[merrow_llewella_corr_002.jpg]<\/strong> &#8211; Carbon copy of typewritten letter.<\/p>\n<p>January 15, 1926<\/p>\n<p>Dear Dr. Merrow:<\/p>\n<p>Miss <strong>[<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=424\"><strong>Katherine] Pettit<\/strong><\/a> has just sent your note on to Pine Mountain. I suppose she is in New York by this time, and I want you to know that we will be ever so glad to have you come riding in on us, any time you want to.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Miss McCord<\/strong> is at Wooton, thirty miles away from us, and you would reach her, I believe, from Typo on the L. and R. branch of the L. and N. Then you would have a thirty-mile trip to come up to us. I would like you to be thinking about the possibility of staying at Line Fork until the first of September. A preacher and his wife, who is a physician, are coming then for that work, and a couple of nurses are under consideration for the intervening time, but neither of them may be the sort of person who ought to take over that work. It would be wonderful to have you over there for a few months if you would consider it.<\/p>\n<p>I suppose we will know very soon about these nurses, certainly by the time you get here. The work would only be temporary, and the salary would, of course, be small, but there must be medical work going on over there. The other resident in the family would be <strong>Miss Bingham<\/strong> whose specialty is domestic science.<\/p>\n<p>It does seem to me that there must be a place for you somewhere\u00a0in the mountains. Our <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=2518\"><strong>Dr. [Alfreda] Withington<\/strong><\/a>, who is by no means young, is able to do a tremendous amount of work. I am inclined to think there must be just the sort of place you would like to fit into if you are in\u00a0good robust condition. It seems fairer to you to stop by Wooton first, for something permanent might open up there and the Line Fork work would be only temporary.<\/p>\n<p>It will be good to see you again.<\/p>\n<p>Very sincerely yours,<br \/>\n[Unsigned: Ethel de Long Zande]<\/p>\n<p><strong>[merrow_llewella_corr_003] &#8211; Carbon copy of typewritten letter.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>February 3, 1926<\/p>\n<p>Dear Dr. Merrow:<\/p>\n<p>I am most anxious to know how you feel about the temporary work at Line Fork, as another probable worker has come onto the near horizon for that work, Could you drop me a line?<\/p>\n<p>Very sincerely yours,<br \/>\n[Unsigned: Ethel de Long Zande]<\/p>\n<p><strong>[merrow_llewella_corr_004.jpg] <\/strong>&#8211; Carbon copy of typewritten letter.<\/p>\n<p>February 10, 1926<\/p>\n<p>Dear<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Miss Merrow:<\/p>\n<p>I am wondering if your sister has gotten the two letters I have sent to her in your care.

This is a very difficult time of the year for us.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You know it is the school\u2019s policy that anything which is paid for from this office, is ordered from this office, and when we talked about the necessity of your having supplies immediately, you asked if you could order directly, so as to save time, saying that you were sure that you wouldn\u2019t need more than $50.00 worth. We therefore took a special gift of money that came in at the time, to provide for your supplies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course we want to do all we possibly can to give you the right kind of start, but perhaps by the time we should be able to send Robinson Pettet some money, you will have made some collections and be able to send us something to apply on this bill. We shall find it a great lift if you can. Ultimately, that work at Line Fork ought to be paying for itself, as it does at the Medical Settlement. It would be inadvisable to try to create a special account for it now, on a temporary basis, with Miss Pettit away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are eager to see what you can do to combat the spirit at Line Fork, which was one of our reasons for placing the settlement there.
