Public documents of the legislature of Connecticut, ..session .. . n gathering of such vast bodies of soldiers, casual-ties of battle and inevitable sickness. Hospitals had to be hastilyimprovised, hospital stores provided, and surgeons employed whohad never before seen a gun-shot wound or a case of camp those trying times are past and government has risen in itsmight and provided every thing which can contribute to the com-fort of the sick and wounded soldiers, while surgeons have becomethoroughly educated to the work on hand. The sanitary commis-sions and the various soldiers aid societies throughout the coun-try have also done very much to alleviate the sufferings of the in-mates of the many hospitals. Your agents would say with confidence to the friends of soldiersin the general hospitals, that they may safely dismiss any fearswhich they may entertain lest their friends be not well housed,lodged, clad, warmed, fed, and professionally cared for.
