The above list of wounded includes all the In
dianians now in hospital in this place. The
wounded are under the care of Surgeon Gall, of
indianapolis. His wards are in excellent cOndi-
ton, and feel assured that our patients are do
ing better here than they could do if they were
at home There is order already issued to
furlOugh the wounded home whenever they are
able to travel, and also TO discharge from the
service those whose injuries render them unfit tor
military duty. This policy will remove the sick
and wounded to their several homes, il thorough
ly carried out, at early period as practicable
Nv colleagues, Drs. Wiley and Riddle, Join me
in saving that our patients in hospital here should
remain until disposed of under the order referred
TO above.
Our men are comfortable, and. with but two or
three exceptions among the wounded, are cheer
full and contented. When assured that your Elk
celIencys sOicitude for their welfare the
heartfelt sentiment of every loyal citizen of our
noble State il was received with hattering plau-
dts The Sanitary Commission (Of Indianapolis)
furnished MANY articles, and is still supplying
whenever needed
| think the people of the State should not feel
uneasy about their sick friends on account Of the
scarcity of means for proper treatment Where
the Government have failed the Sanitary Com
mission has filed the vacuum.
We have rendered all the service to
the sick and wounded here, and therefore shall
leave for Frederick, (Md.) where most of the
wounded and sick are removed, and from which
place | will again report.
