Obituary

As we go to press we have received the news of the death, on 31st July, of Mrs. Valintine, wife of Dr. Valintine, the Inspector General of Hospitals and the Registrar of Nurses and Midwives. This sad news will be read with the deepest regret by all New Zealand nurses, who look upon their Registrar with respect and affection as one who has always had their welfare and interests at heart. His wife was one with him in all things, and a friend to those nurses with

whom she came in contact. At a meeting of the Council of the Wellington branch of the Trained Nurses' Association a motion of deep regret and sympathy with Dr. Valintine and his family in this great trial, was passed, and a telegram sent to him. A wreath of violets was sent by the Old Hospitals Department staff, with expressions of deep sympathy, and also a wreath from the combined staffs of the Public Health, and the Hospitals Department.
