FROM THE SCRAF BOOK OF 1322 | C Of S o s s Surgeon s Office U. S. ARMY Fort Rosecrans, California Temporary Naval Hospital San Diego. Calif. August 10, 1903 I o the Sisters. St. Joseph s Hospital: The sailors at the Naval Hospital send their respects and sincere thanks to the Sisters at St. Joseph s Hospital. The sher- bet was delicious, and it was much enjoyed by all the patients. They feel most grateful to tlie Sisters for their kind thought. Very respectfully, s The Surgeon in Charge Benninptoi) Disaster It was a dismal tragedy which took j)lace hist week down by the City of the Silver Gate. The sympathy of the entire nation went out to the olhcers and men o f the ill-fated Bennington that came so near to utter destruction in what is, perhaps, the most placid sea on earth. The people of San Uicgo must have felt as the people of Havan.v in that awful nigiit seven years ago. It is no trilling occurrence Ihatj brings half a laindred dead to a small city ' s doors and puts half ar hundred more wounded unto death in its hospitals. Even this appalling occurrence had its consoling features. Those wlio survived tlie catastrophe showed a striking devotion to the car« of their suffering comrades and paid honorable tribute to those who had answered the last bugle call. All the hospitals in San Diego opened wide their doors to care for the stricken sailor men. True to tlie obligation of their noble profession, tlie doctors gathered to du whatever may be done to alleviate pain and hold back in many a broken body the flickering spark of life. The women, too, cain,e ircm tlieir homes and tlieir families to give their kindly encouragement and gentle ministrations. Not last nor least of the efforts put forth on the sad occasion were those of the Sisters of Mercy The Sisters of this community have served on many a battlefield, and are evei; will- ing workers when the cry of pain comes from the men wlio guard tlie nation ' s flag. St. Joseph ' s Sanitarium in San Diego did its full duty to the gallant jackies of the Bennington. It is M tlint n.o Vq,.,. rin.,.,,. - J- ■• ' - ..-j-.-i. -• ■ ■■
