- Notes
- Please note: language pertaining to Indigenous Peoples, people of colour, and those of the Jewish faith used throughout is outdated and offensive. Letters are all handwritten and typewritten and include some hotel, business and camp letterheads. Some letters are marked with a small x in pencil, indicating where Jon Whyte made notes for use in his project "Catharine Robb Whyte, Peter Whyte: Commemorative Portfolio," originally published in 1981. Some letters also have numbers written in pencil crayon, believed to be from when originally processed.

- Not to be confused with the Sanitarium, which was part spa hotel and part hospital, and was located at the intersection of Banff Avenue and Spray/Cave Avenue, the "New Brett Hospital" was constructed on Spray Avenue in 1908/09. It closed in 1926 following the death of Dr. Harry Brett in 1925, and was purchased by the Sisters of Saint Martha in 1930. The hospital was replaced by a new facility in 1958. In 1987 the Mineral Springs Hospital relocated to its new facility on Lynx Street
