Wretched Condition of a Woman who Was
a Nurse During the civil War.
Mrs Licinda Peele and her year old
child are living in state of destitution
at No 122 Elliott street, beyond Market
street bridge in this city. The case of
Mrs Peele is of distressing nature and
attention was called to it by one of her
neighbors, who had done what she could
to tighten her misery Mrs. Peele was
herself averse to the matter being made
public, but yielded TO the stern necessi-
ties with which she was confronted Her
story as she related it to an EVENING
JOURNAL reporter is substantially as
follows:
During the progress of the Civil War
she volunteered her services as nurse
and was assigned to a camp hospital near
Alexander where she remained for over a
year. She also nursed in several other
hospitals during the war In the ''seven
davis fight" under Mcclellan her brother
and father Heury M. Guyer and Jonas
Guyer we're wounded.
She afterwards married William Peele,
a native Of this city, and lived with him
here for over a year. Her husband
Joined the crew of the steamer Wyomer
which was launched from the Harlan and
Hollingsworth Company's ship yards
some seven or eight years ago, and soon
after she left this city. Four
years ago the husband was drowr i
in voyage to England
leaving her with her baby in want She
managed to eke out an existence in Syria
cuse, N. Y until her health failed her
and she came to this city in search of heI
husbands people, but although. search
was made for them none could be found,
nor is there Peele in the directory.
She is now literally starving The two
rooms in which she lives are 4x6 feel
each without perticle Of furniture ex-
cept q broken chair, which she borrowed
and a rude couch made Of few stick:
over which is thrown tattered counter
pane. Mrs. Peele is a respectable looking
woman. who Notwithstanding her cir
