One of the most important meetings
incident TO the coming encampment of
the Grand Army was held last night at
the Riggs House when the medical COM
mittee of the reunion convened for the
purpose of establishing the methods of
caring for the sick during the two weeks
in October.
According to the original arrangement
there were to be two hospitals, a field
infirmary and another occupying the
Nailor Building, on Fifteenth Street.
Most of the time last night was devoted
to the consideration of the advisability
of having two separate institutions, and
whether the expense of fitting up the
Nailor Building would be necessary in
view of the fact that all hospital acces-
sories will be furnished by the Govern
ment.
