For Florence Nightingale I should think the episode might be instructive and everyway useful one. She will probably saw her wild oats in the shape of unsatisfied aspirations and activity and come back and marry suitably to immense comfort of her relations.’ Emily listening to her sister rejected the offer to work in Crimea, instead went to look for other ways to practice medicine in London.

Florence Nightingale was born on…
