Water for the Wounded |
The sick and wounded soldiers who travel
on our Railroads would be very grateful to the superintendents of our
Railroads, if they would furnish an abundant supply of good cold water
for them on the cars. Wounded men are generally thirsty, and whether
on or off the cars, it is almost impossible for them to obtain water
at all times when they want it. We have made this suggestion at the
request of a friend, and we trust the authorities of the different
Roads will make such provision in this respect as will meet the wants
of our sick and wounded soldiers. |
