SOLDIERS INDIGNANT.
III They Die in the California HON,
They Are Dissected.

HI They Die in the California Home
They Are Dissected.
SAN Francisco, Feb. s.-Several
members of the Grand Army have re-
ceived communications from the SOL
diers' home at Yountville expressing
great Indignation at the treatment to
which the bodies of soldiers who die in
the institution are subject. The feeling
was aroused by a paragraph in the last
annual report of the home. and it has
been increased by recent developments
Following is a copy of letter received
by G. A r. official in this city:
VETERANS HOME, YOUNTvILLE,
Jan. 81.
Much indignation exists here about the
bodies of old soldiers, members of the
home, being mutilated and dismembered
for the benefit of doctors and medical
students
In his last annual report, dated June
80. 1895, Dr. W. f. McAllister says:
sixteen autopsies have been held during
the year, and from this date on autopsies
will be held and history of each case
will be carefully recorded of all who die
at the home"
This report was accepted, approved
and printed by the directors, who have
lately, to facilitate this and other matters,
appointed three other doctors-a visiting
physician, an ear, eye and throat special
ist, and young assistant surgeon.
Some of the old vets have left and others
will leave on account of this unlawful
and outrageous treatment of our dead.
The attention of relatives, the Grand
Army who founded this home, the peo-
pie who support it with their taxes, and
the law officers of the Government is
called to this degradation of the bodies
of the heroes who fought to save our
nation.
