Feb. 10th-/02

Dear Madam,
Re A
Miss Douglas has asked me to make arrangements to remove this girl from your service. I regret very much that it is not possible to remove herby WEDNESDAY next, but may I trouble you to kindly send her to London on FRIDAY next by the train leaving Worcester @ 9.12 due to arrive at Paddington @ 12 o'clock, where she will be met by Miss Bailey a lady who will be dressed in blue uniform after the style of a nurse. The girl should be sent clean and tidy and with any clothing she may have belonging to her and should be placed under the c/o the guard. I do not think I should inform the girl that she is going to London until the very day as I am particularly anxious that the Aunt should not meet her. Please let me have a line saying that the girl will be sent.
Yours faithfully

Mrs. V.
