Doctors and Nurses Of England Es

kilisseh,

London.-The doctors and nurses OF
the Women's Sick and Wounded Con-
voy corps have returned from their
three months service at Kirk Kilisseh
Their service establishes record.
They got together and maintained a
hospital by themselves without any
mans assistance, and the efficient
way they carried the work through
earned the admiration of the authori-
ties.
Within 4S hours Of their arrival at
Kirl Kilisseh they received the first
batch of patients, so wounded men
from Tchatalja. Several hundred men
In all were received. Officers were
treated in tho Bulgarian hospital, fine,
decent men, chivalrous, grateful and
boyish, pleased with their treat
ment.
Their marvelously recuperative pow
err, shown on many occasions by the
rapid healing of long neglected gan
grenous wounds, Mrs. Stobart ascribes
to the simplicity of their lives, plain
fare and their generally high standard
Of morality. Considering the rough
hospital arrangements and the bad
sanitation 1t is amazing that only one
patient died.
The corps had reason to be thank
full for is earlier training, for ingenu-
ity was demanded of all departments,
aud not least in the kitchen. The
cooks had even to skin and dismem-
Der the carcasses Of bullocks and
sheep with which they were supplied,
and everything had to be smothered
with red pepper to please the taste
of the grateful patients.
