To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A landholder generously gave them the use of some vacant lots on the corner of Broad and Prince streets ; others con- tributed lumber, furniture, heating ap- paratus, bath-tubs, and some, money.
One poor Irishman ^ wheeled a half- worn stove to the new hospital. "He had nothing else to give," he said, ** and must do something for the sogers." The hos- pital was erected, and furnished with five hundred beds in fifteen days, at a cost of over $9,000. It was subsequently en- larged, so as to give ...accommodations for seven hundred beds, and has, iv addition* Digitized by VjOOQ IC 91 two kitchens, bath-rooms, and a large dining-room. It has received over 2,500 patients in a day, and has lodged more than 700 at night. Nearly 40,000 sol- diers have been admitted since it was opened. It has received, in money, about $23,300 to March 1, 1864, and expended about $20,000. It has received also in clothing, food, liquors, and delicacies, not less than $30,000.
The feeling of sympathy and patriot- ism which has actuated the masses of the people, manifested itself in numberless instances of thoughtfulness and tender- ness, even from classes, among whom it was hardly to be looked for.
