From the
Richmond

, p. 2
Temperance
Hall
Military
Hospital
. - A correspondent, who is posted on the facts connected with the establishment
of the above Hospital, on Church Hill, says, in reference to our recent notice
of it, that it was in the main correct, though slightly incorrect in some
details. The facts are these: The Hospital was established by the soldiers and
societies in connection with the Trinity Methodist and the
Leigh
Street
Baptist
Churches
, and is supported by contributions from those societies. The Hospital is under
the immediate supervision of the ladies of the societies referred to, and will
be amply provided for. It promises to do much good; in fact, has done much for
the sick and suffering volunteers.
