Maryland (Maryland, United States) (search for this): article 2
s between here and Winchester. There is a cold, careless, unfeeling spirit with some of the medical department that is a disgrace to humanity. Hearts and brains are badly wanted, if soldiers speak truly. How is it that some soldiers can get passes from Surgeons to come to Staunton from Winchester and the army, walk all the way, in some instances carrying a gun and knapsack, and walk faster than my horse could? It seems to me, if they were able to walk so far and carry so heavy a burthen, they could be with their companies. Before close I must tell you of a little incident that occurred in Maryland between Stonewall Jackson and the ladies. They surrounded the old game cock (he said, "Ladies, this is the first time I was ever surrounded,") and cut every button off his coat, and, they say, commenced on his pants, and at one time it was feared he would be in the uniform of a Georgia Colonel, minus all except a shirt collar and spurs.

All our forces are now on the Virginia side. This is reliable. So great was the crowd coming from Winchester to Staunton that passengers had taken seats five days ahead; so I had to buy a horse and ride to this place. I passed on the road hundreds of wounded soldiers, walking ninety-two miles, many of them barefooted, to reach Staunton, when, in five or six towns on the road, hospital accommodations might have been easily obtained; but if they must come to this place, why were not wagons pressed to convey them in? There are more than three thousand wagons between her
