The Daily Dispatch: September 24, 1861., [Electronic resource], Gen. Sickles. (search)
Mas stabbed. --We are sorry to hear, from a passenger on last evening's train from Manassas, that a fatal affray took place in the hospital near the Junction; by which a member of one of the Mississippi regiments lost his life. The Mississippian had a friend in the hospital, and insisted on visiting him while under the influence of liquor. When inside he began to give directions to the servants how to treat the man, but was checked by the Surgeon, who told him he had no right to interfere with his instructions. The man then began abusing the Surgeon, insulting him grossly, and finally struck him in the face. The Surgeon then drew a knife and stabbed him through the heart. The unfortunate man died without a struggle. This is the report as it was furnished us; but we were unable to gain any further information, or even learn the names of the parties engaged in the reencounter.
