Description (What the record is about)
-
Folio 96. Report, unsigned, on the hospital accommodation for the troops serving on the Continent. The medicine has arrived and is worthless; it will rather kill those it is meant to cure, than cure them. The master of the hospital is incapable. Want is everywhere apparent: surgeons are lacking through want of payment; artillery has only one valet per 4 horses and any sickness amongst them will mean the horses will die and ammunition will be stuck; more clergy are required to administer to the wants of the sick, and the prisoners are not fed without difficulty. Ill-will is shown towards the Prince of Waldeck in everything. They face difficulties with the magazines, of which no one wishes to take charge.
