Could arrangements be made for their support untill hired out, or in what way can your department advise I could get several women placed in West Chester County N.Y immediately but there would have to be someway provided for their support [[strikethrough]] your [[strikethrough]] untill sent out. Yours Respectfully R Webber New York Aug 22/67 No 1 Tryon Row
