    PREFACE. To the Sanitary Commission of the U. S. Government : Gentlemen,—The efficient aid rendered our Commission by the Woman's Central Association of Eelief at New York, has induced me to prepare a report on the origin, organization, and working of that Society, for permanent record among the papers of the Commission. Having been an original member of that Association, I am able to give facts which would be soon lost sight of if not now recorded. I am not without hope, also, that the circulation of this report will be serviceable to the Woman's Central Association, and, through them, to the Sanitary Commission. I have accordingly ordered the printing of it for that purpose. Respectfully yours, Henry W. Bellows, Prest. New York, Oct. 12, 1861.
