Kate Cumming: A Journal of Hospital Life in the Confederate Army of Tennessee.

Sunday, March 1.—I have been very busy all day, too much so to go to church. Mrs. W. is quite well again. She is a member of the Methodist Church, a devout Christian, and is the means of doing much good; I think, as much as any chaplain possibly could. She is greatly beloved by all; the patients look up to her as they would to a kind, sympathizing mother.

Miss Groom is helping Mrs. Snow; she has been quite sick.

Rev. Mr. Denniston visited the sick today.
