Halifax, N.S. January 28th.1918.
Chairman, Managing Committee,
Halifax
Sir.,
A Medical Historian was appointed by the Medical Relief Committee at its inception December 11th. and has been given all records with reference to the Medical Relief work.
It seems to me that for the sake of other cities and for the future that this work should be published in book form so that it would be purchasable and would act as a guide to other cities which might find themselves in a similar position to Halifax.
Professor Fraser Harris who is acting as Historian has asked the following questions,-
1. Who will meet the cost of publishing the book?
2. Will it have any illustrations?
3. To whom will gratis copies be sent?
4. Will it be bound in boards or only in paper like a "blue book?"
5. Will it be on sale to the public?
6. May the Author have any financial interest in the sale of it?
Yours truly,
[Fraser Bell]
Lt-Col.
