Transcription
This beautiful Memorial stands just at the entrance to the Edith Cavell School for Nurses & Hospital — The hospital is most modern & beautifully equipped. I saw in the sun-room — 34 little children — all more or less tuberculous. After three years here they are cared for in another Home for seven more years — A very beautiful garden surrounds the hospital.
