Further comments

Not clear why delay from initial application (p.12 is a letter from Hunt, 12 Feb 1918, asking for what her ‘special reasons’ are for asking at this time – not clear she gets letter as asks in 1920 why never heard back). Hunt asked for proof of Dutch nationality on 1/11/20 but no reply in record.
