Of the Central Division Confederate States Army
Of Kentucky. In enterprise which is 80 inti-
mstely connected with the physical comfort, if not
also the lie, of the soldier, feel that you are
scarcely less interested than myself. Therefore
beg to make few practical suggestions TO you, as
to the manner in which you may serve those mem
bers CT the army who are overtaken by accident
CT disease. Avery Efficient mode OF rendering as
sistaUce to the Inmates Of tn hospital is through
the agency Of Relief Associations such numbers Of
which already in operation IN the Confederate
States. Can you not organize such Associations
wherever they 90 not exist and through them for
ward whatever may be Contributed! Where, for
any reason such societies cannot be speedily put ID
operation, individuals should forward their dona-
lions direct to Bowling Green.
Among the spSicles Of daily use in the hospitals
