Miss Nightingale says, "There was, at first, no system of registration for general hospitals, for all were burdened with work beyond their strength." Dr. Mann says, that, in the War of 1812, "no sick-records were found in the hospital at Burlington," one of the largest depositories of the sick then in the country. "The hospital-records on the Niagara were under no order."
