Florence NIGHTINGALE- Autograph Letter SIGNED (To Sir James Clark). 7 pages.

30, Old Burlington St. London, W. March 17 (18)60. "My dear Sir James Clark, I have just had your letter & consulted Dr. Sutherland upon its subject, who had the last conversation about it with Mr. Herbert here. He says that he could not give his opinion to Mr. Herbert upon this kind of matter without being asked. He did not know till last Sunday that the appointments had not been arranged for life. [Surely Drs. Parkes & Aitken ought to have stipulated for this themselves when they accepted]. I remember your mentioning the subject to Dr. Sutherland with reference to retirements some time ago. ..." And goes on later: "Longmore could be replaced, if he retired in 5 years, I understand. Of these two it is not question. But for the two civilians, unquestionably they should have life appointments..." SIGNED F. Nightingale. SIGNED F. Nightingale. From the Sir Thomas Longmore Library.
