Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Western Sanitary Commission: And What It Did for the Sick and Wounded of the Union Armies From 1861 to 1865, With Mention of the Services of Companion James E. Yeatman Therewith At that juncture Miss Dix, the philanthropist, was in St. Louis, and the suggestion that a Sanitary Commission be formed here, to be subordinate to and act in aid of the Medical Department, was favorably received and carried into immediate effect. An order was issued by General Fremont creating the Commission and defining its objects and duties, and the members named were James E. Yeatman, Carlos S. Greeley, Dr. J. B. Johnson, George Partridge and Rev. W. G. Eliot, and it thus remained to the end of the war. The first important work of the Commission was to fit up a new hospital large enough to accommodate 500 patients. This was done in the building at the S. W. Corner of Broad way and Chestnut Street, and it was opened September roth and placed under the charge of Surgeon John T. Hodgen, with a corps of competent assistants. It was called the City General Hospital. In this building the Commission had its office in a small room in the second story. Mr. Yeat man gave his entire time to the work from thenceforth untilthe end of the war. He had a man on a salary of per month to act as clerk, porter, store-keeper, and man of all work, and each member of the Commission would lend a helping hand in unpacking the boxes of sanitary stores arriving from New England and the various towns and cities of the West, prepared by the wives, mothers, daughters and sweethearts of the men at the front. These were distributed as needed to the hospitals, camps and regiments in and around St. Louis, and to posts in the interior of the State.
