From the Richmond Dispatch, 7/31/1861 , p. 2

The Wounded. - Dr. F. W. Hancock, of this city, who has lately returned from Manassas, informs us that he went through all the camps, for the purpose of obtaining information as to the necessities of the wounded soldiers. They will continue to be sent to Richmond as rapidly as they are reported able to endure the fatigue of the journey, and those of our citizens who desire to throw open their doors for their accommodation, will soon have an opportunity. The committee having this matter in charge are untiring in their efforts to make the wounded men comfortable.
