To tbe Citizens of Georgia and of
the other Slates of the Southern
Confederacy,
T HE HOSPITAL AID SOCIETY OF ST.
PHILIP'S CHURCH, Atlanta, Ga., was
organized soon after the commencement of
active hostilities, and has been industriously
but quietly laboring in its patriotic work eyer
since. Atlanta having been constituted by
the authorities a principal station for Hospi
tal work, we feel constrained to call upon our
Southern brethren to come to our help. There
are some 3.090 sick soldiers here now, hailing
from every part of the Confederacy, and the
number is likely to be largely increased.
We appeal to our fellow-patriots to send us
anything they can spare that would be useful
for the siek and suffering. A careful and just
distribution will be made of all that we re
ceive.
They who prefer to make use of our Society
as the Almoner of their contributions, will
please address their packages to either of the
undersigned.

JAMES ORMOND Vice President,
MRS. E. B WALKFR, Directress,
0. B. OaTMAN, Treasurer,

N. B. All papers in Georgia and the other
States of the Confederacy are requested, from
patriotic motives, to give the shove a few in
