a handsome field hospital flag reached
MAJ. Clark last week. The major has asked
permission from the donors to use it at the
division hospital, where the major is in charge
1t was intended for the use Of the Twelfth
exclusively, but Maj. Clark wants 1t Over
his headquarters.
The following letter from Duluth accom-
panied the flag and guidons:
90 Nal M,t lha m G Clark Surgeon Chief
Dear Sir: The Lewis Malone Aver soc ely.
Children of the American Revolution, des re-
10 present 70 the Twelfth regiment OF Mime
sofa volunteers this set of Red Cross hos
pital flags, and, as. president OF the soci ty.
is ! SEND them , to you and ak that you accept
and men Of the Twelfth Minnesota regiment.
Yours very respectfully,
Mrs. George H. Ranney,
President Lewis Malone Aver Society.
All the Minnesota boys who are in the d.
vision hospital are getting en- finely One or
two have rather high temperatures. but
Efforts are being made to have CAPT Bo.ce,
of Company d, transferred TO the Letter los
pital: His wife arrived today, and is at The
hospital now. Her coming has had a good
effect upon the captain, and 1t is hoped he
will soon be able to return to Minnesota. A
few days spent back home would probably do
mn more soeu lnan anything that can lie
done for him here. Maj Clark Is w,rting
under great disadvantages to keep UP the
good record he has made for the division hos
pital. AS fast as he gets an assistant or
cughly broken in so that he en- Intel igently
perform his duties, he is recalled to his COM
pany and new one has to be educated. The
major and Lieut.. Hayes are about worn cut.
There should be some way to keep the force
together and in that way to inor5a-e its e.
ficency. However. considering all nandl-
caps, it is a fine Institution. Maj. CLARK
and Lieut.. Hayes entitled to great credit
for making 1t what it is.
TWELFTH MOVES SHORTLY.
