IN BjSHOSPIl
Writes Letter Telling of Assign
ment and His Work
TELLS OF 580 PATIENTS
Being Brought In on One U. S.
Hospital Train
Lt. J. Ii. Diiismore, better known
as Dr. Diiismore, formerly of Or-
eneo, wrote his wife, now of this
city, under date of Aug. !i(i, from
liase Hospital No. 20, Cliatcl
Guyoii, France :
"A few lines to let you know I
am all (). K. After 10 days now
of all most continuous travel.
much hard work and vi rv little
sleep and 'eats', I am at last de
tailed to the best base hospital in
ranee. Wrote vou last from
lion rges, where we (two other
iciilcnaiits and a captain) were
held over night, were on our way
lo the front above Paris. Were up
there 3 days getting a hospital
train of wounded. Landed lit-rt
night before last with 580 of
them in a real I'. S. hospital
train; that kind of a train in this
country means a whole lot when
put along side of tin; French and
F.nglish little dink v cars.
"Two hours after reaching this
place had them all classified and
in bed ready for operation or
Iressing, as the case required.
The- train went hack the same
night, but we were detailed to
stay here with this uuit, as thev
:une over here as a hospital unit
for a 500 bed hospital but instead
thev are required to handle a 2,-
000 bed hospital, so you can im-,
lgine what they are up against
when a loaded train gets in from
the front after a drive.
"This hospital unit with the ex
ception of five doctors, is made
11) entirely of Cniversity of Penn.
men, 35 doctors all told, ti.) nurs
es and 150 enlisted men. We have
plenty of work. Chatcl Guyoii is
one of the noted French summer
resorts, 210 miles south of Paris;
a beautiful place, noted for its
mineral springs. The buildings
are simply large stone summer
hotels four to six stories in height
in sort of a cluster overlooking ai
little valley in which these
springs are located.
"The U. S. army have taken
oyer most 01 tne larger Hotels
md equipped them for hospital
. 1 1 i-
use, anil mev sure mane vcrv one
irniv hospitals; electric lights, an
unlimited supply of the finest
kind of mountain water and the
finest climate 1 judge, to be found
in France. The medical olheers
ire quartered in one of the small-
r hotel buildings, and am slccp
, 1 1 1 i- - i
ing in a real neii nospnai m-u
with mattress, sheets, and a pil
low, with hot and cold water in
the room; eat in a regular dining
room from real dishes on a white
table cloth. Two months now
since I have had a chance at any
thing like it; am willing to camp
right here for the duration of the
war. Don't imagine I will have
any such luck.
"Operative teams are sent to
the front from the different base
hospitals every now and then, es
pecially w hen a drive is on. They
o up and work three or four
days and take back a train of the
wounded like we did.
"I sent back four men to the
front today who were wounded
the first few days in Jirly. The
wounded men do line and make
very quick recoveries, but the gas
eases are fierce. I an do nothing
much for them; simply takes time
ind nature and lots of both. I
have some 50 gas patients in my
wards who have been here from
four to eight weeks; will move
them out to a convalescent camp
camp this week; can't hold them
here nfter they nrc out of danger;
have to make room for men fresh
from the front.
"Have some mighty big men
connected with this unit, not on
ly among the doctors but also
among the $30 per month order
lies and stretcher bearers. Tin
man who waits on the officers'
dining room is a graduate of the
Cniversity of Pennsylvania ami
one of Ihe doctors told me he was
worth more than a million dol
lars. A prominent lawyer of
Philadelphia drives one of the
hospital ambulances and carries
patients. One of the men oftereii
to make a bet of 1,000 francs
(sounds like a pile, don't it, but it
isn't ) that actual fighting woulil
be over by January 1. Hope be i
right because von and I have a
date on July 4. you know, and T
don't want to miss it."
