ANGEL OF THE TRANSPORT
What One Little hut Heroic Woman Has
Accomplished


Perhaps there is no woman In the
country to-day who is more the idol
of our soldiers than the angel of the
Transports sweet faced little wild
ow who began nursing the sick in the
Spanish-American war, and has unre-
mittingly continued this voluntary
service ever since. She is Mrs. George
r. Sullivan, and II was at Chicka-
mauga Camp that the soldiers first
learned TO know and love her.
Welded directly after the civil war
to George r. Sullivan, United States
Army surgeon, this lady learned from
his lips the horrors which surrounded
the care Of the sick in the field. Sur
geon Sullivan died in 1898. but the
memory Of his teachings lived after
him. and when, five years later the
war cloud rose, his brave little widow
was among the first to offer her SER
vices at Washington that she might
allay the sufferings of the poor lads
who were sure TO be stricken either
by Mauser bullets or by disease.
Friends attempted to dissuade her,
but to no avail.
Her services were accepted by the
army authorities, and at Chickamauga
her first work was done. In the fever
hospitals at that point, and later at
Tampa, her kind and cheering words
encouraged many a poor fellow into
making a fight for life, while they
brought peace to others who had pass
ed the rallying point and for whom
there was no earthly hope
She became known in army circles
as the Angel Of the Transports" In
the midst of her trying work Mrs.
Suilivan's health gave way. For a
time it seemed as If the end had come
10 her charitable endeavor, but she
must have taken to herself some of
her own cheering advice for, contrary
TO all the medical predictions, she
withstood the ravages of disease, and
in short time was again at her post
of duty, attempting by added labor, to
make UP for time lost.
Among the thousands Of applications
there were some for whom it was i'm
possible TO find places in the hospitals,
and then the acme of her charity was
reached, for she threw open the doors
of her own home at Flemington, n. j.,
and for nearly two years there has
hardly been a day when there has
