this paper To the city of Haycrhiil, Mass,

cannot fail to be of the greatest interest to

lieving suffering aud saving lives than amy

seems to have been u women what Flvrencc

suffering soldiers, The instances of women
who were in the greatest agony and nppar-
emily beyond the reach OF human aid, that
