Report nrOm the Tooth Regiment HI.
volunteers.
The undersigned having been sent to
Chattanooga, by the Sanitary Commission,
40 look after the interests, and comfort Of
wounded Union soldiers, 10 the army of
the Cumberland, and especially of those in
the Tooth Regt. I'll. Vols. l submit the
following statement, to those who have
friends, relations, and loved ones in the
Tooth. As soon as requested we FASTENED
to the front; leaving Chicago an the oath
Of September, we arrived in Chattanooga
the 18th, travelling the last forty miles of
our journey on foot, The battle of the
10Th and Goth Of September, which took
place little south of Chattanooga was
certainly very severe one, and the mum
Der Of wounded was very great But MAJ
ny we're, slight wounds. causing but little
suffering comparatively. and giving hope
Ofa speedy relief. There was, in front
hut scanty supply Of sanitary goods of
lnV kind, for this reascu as well, as for
other considerations, an order was given
10 sen1 tothe rear oil whose lives, were
net endangered by IT. In the execution
Of this order, we saw, what t. US was q
source of grief, aud a matter of surprise.
We cannot say who was to blame, we only
state what we cav. From Chattanooga to
Stevenson. it is about fifty miles, and as
bad road, as was ever used lay civilized
man. Ambulances and Wagons were
loaded with wounded men TO pass over this
road to Stevenson re curing most Of three
days to make the trip. aud vet no rations
were given to these men, except few
hard crackers, of these some got fonr
some two, some none. A far as we could
learn, (ard we took pains /, find uut) none
Of the men had anv thing except, what WAS
furnished by The drivers who Ia their kind
ness divided their ra iurs Of meal sugar,
end coffee, with their suffering fellow SOL
diefs. When these men, were moved
from Stevenson 10 Nashville they were
sent eft in the same manner, without ra~
tions, laid thicklg on the floor Of box cars
and no candles furnished, or lights of any
kind. We mention The things with the
hope, that some one may read it. whr will
know how to correct the evil, ana have
furnished on such occasions. or least IN"
common soldiers rations, Iftbe surgeons
detailed for The trains. did anything for
the wounded in any way, either from Chat
(Rnonga to Stevenson, or from Stevenson
TO Nashville, we were not able 20 observe
it.
But the men were generally patient and
cheerful, showing they were as brave to
endure suffering, as they were to face
danger.
Quite q number who were able to ,rav.
ell had been moved 70 Nashville before we
arrived and of these we hear of some who
had been furioughed, and gone to their
homes, With comparatively few excepS
lions all are doir e well-thnse of the l00jh
Iof, hob,
portable Ms their wounds, and surround
ngs would possibly admit Of We saw no
lone of the Tooth Regt. die, and as far as
were able to judge, all Of our regiment
may recover, If proper attendance can be
given, and no accident should occur.
We are unprepared to give any particu.
lars, in regard to the death of those who
were killed, or who died of their wounds
