Ella Kate Cooke

[edit]

Ella Kate Cooke (1885[1]-August 9, 1917[2]) was a New Zealand Sister who earned her nursing license in Auckland and later served as a nurse for France during World War I. She died in 1917 near the hospital in which she worked in Alexandria after being hit by a train.

Biography

[edit]

She first began her initial training in nursing in 1907[3] at the Auckland Hospital and later at the Cook Hospital in Gisborne. She was transferred to the hospital in Hawera in 1910 and staying there until early 1913.[4][5] Afterward, Cooke worked in the Waikato region of New Zealand after being sent there as the only available nurse for the region and peoples therein,[6] having been given the title of "Native Health Nurse".[7] She later became "a member of the Public Health Nursing Service".[8]

In 1914, when she was 29, Cooke departed from New Zealand by way of Auckland on the RMS Niagara, accompanied by her twin sister,[9] and headed for Canada on the way to Britain. Traveling across both Canada and America, they departed for Britain from New York on the RMS Lusitania. The ship was chased by a German cruiser on the open sea, but arrived safely in Britain.[10]

Not long after arriving, "Britain declared war on Germany". Because she had known other English people while in New Zealand, Cooke decided to enlist as a nurse to help the war effort.[9] However, her services were not necessary in Britain, so she traveled to France and joined the French Flag Nursing Corps as a volunteer[11] and also worked with the French Red Cross.[12] She was stationed in Bernay, France and treated wounded soldiers returning from battle.[9][13]

Cooke was to be moved to another base on November 19, 1915,[14] but she was instead sent to Egypt in October of the same year,[15] as a part of the Queen Alexandra's Royal Army Nursing Corps.[8][16] The training for her journey and the nursing knowledge she would have to know was done at Connaught Hospital in Aldershot.[4]

She died in 1917 while nursing at the "No. 17 Hospital" in Alexandria. While going to meet a friend to have dinner, she passed through a fence onto train tracks behind it and was hit by a train.[17][8] Her body was buried in the Hadra Cemetary and her name is "inscribed on the World War I Nurses Memorial in York Minster, England."[4]

A video was made by the Auckland War Memorial Museum in 2008 called In Memory that features Ella Cooke.[18]

Matricectomy

[edit]

A matricectomy is when part of or all of the base of the nail, commonly known as the nail matrix, is destroyed through the use of surgery, chemicals, or electricity. If all of the nail matrix is removed, then a new nail plate will never grow back. Generally, this procedure is used to get rid of ingrown toenails that keep reoccurring. [19]

Treaty of the Union

[edit]

The Treaty of the Union was an accord between the USSR and its people, the constituent republics, that gave these republics greater economic freedom and sovereignty in an attempt to arrest the continuing breakup of the Soviet Union. Framed by Gorbachev, it involved nine major republics of Russia and was helped along by Boris Yeltsin, Gorbachev's political rival and eventual usurper. This endeavor, however, failed within the year and, following the fall of the USSR, Gorbachev was replaced by Yeltsin in the new Commonwealth of Independent States.[1]
