Order states: 'The Nelson Hospital at Yorktown will be discontinued as a Post Hospital, but may be used for the accomodation of a limited amount of sick of any particular regiment. All sick cases in Regimental Hospitals that do not improve, at Williamsburg, Yorktown or Gloucester Point, will be sent to the General Hospitals, near Fort Monroe, Va. Such cases are now in the Nelson Hospital that are unlikely to improve for some time to come, will also be sent to the General Hospitals. Those who are too ill to be removed, will remain.
