Another woman wrote to Nichols from New Brunswick, Canada.

She had formerly been treated at a sanatorium in Rhode Island. Now she sought information about fees and admittance to Hebron.

She wrote, "I have been trying to take the treatment at home but find it impossible to have the rest and quietness that is necessary to make a cure."
