The history of all the seven hospitals near Crawfish Springs was much the same. When Longstreet broke through the Union right at noon, all these hospitals were cut off from the army. Fortunately his vic- torious troops on passing the Vittetoe house turned to the right, and left the trains and hospitals unmolested for a time. They were safely guarded by the cavalry though separated from the main body of the army. When it was known that the right wing was driven off the field the division surgeon...s consulted with each other and decided to abandon their hospitals. All wagons of every description, and ambulances, were loaded with all the wounded they could possi- bly carry; all that could march were sent on ahead and the whole caravan moved by a woods road back to Missionary Ridge THE GREAT BATTLE OP CHICKAMAUGA. 27 26 MEDICAL DEPARTMEXT IX THE CIVIL WAR. and then to McFarland's Gap and Chattanooga. The cavalry covered the withdrawal of these wounded and trains very suc- cessfully. It appears that they might easily have been captured.
