An einen Herrn Percy MacKaye in New York bezüglich ihrer Hilfe „to my 6.000 deaf-blind fellows“: „I am indeed happy to inform you that the American Foundation for the Blind now is expanding services of benefit to my 6,000 deaf-blind fellows. Heretofore, a few hundred found bright oases of help and understanding in scattered schools and agencies. […] Try to imagine, if you can, the anguish and horror you would experience bowed down by the twofold weight of blindness and deafness. still throbbing with natural emotions and desires, you would feel through the sense of touch the existence of a living world, and desperately but vainly you would seek an escape into its healing light.
