NP, RD 4/7/1862

From the Richmond Dispatch
 
April 7, 1862
 
   We regret to learn Capt. Thos. R. Sharp, Assistant Quartermaster, had his left leg broken Sundaymorning, about 4 o'clock, by falling in a culvert on the Virginia Central Railroad, while assisting in forwarding the train for the relief of persons injured by the accident mentioned above. Capt Sharp's services have been very valuable in removing the Baltimore & Ohio engines to this city, and also in moving the army stores from Manassas. Just at this time his services are much needed by the Confederacy, and it will be very hard to find a person equally well qualified to attend to his duties until his recovery.
