To The Ladies

An appeal is again made to the patriotism and benevolence of the ladies of Davenport, in behalf of the sick and wounded soldiers soon expected here; there is much work to be done to make them comfortable, and as yet but few have volunteered their assistance, it is therefore earnestly requested that there will be an increased attendance of patriotic ladies every day until the work is completed.  The place of meeting is in the lecture room of Christian Chapel, Brady st.  Entrance on the south side of the building.

BY ORDER OF PRES. SOL. AID SOCIETY.
