Title
Pay, Subsistance, and Nurse's Pay
Description
Frye encloses vouchers for money to be credited to his account. Neither he, Lt. Wilson, nor Doctor Osborn received their subsistence for January despite the submission of the statement. Frye has paid the nurse $8 per month because there are so many sick that he cannot hire anyone for less.
