Maulmain, Burmah - Word was received that Dr. Ellen Mitchell died April 6 in that place. Dr. Mitchell was born at New Milford in 1829 to Seth and Comphey Lewis Mitchell. She responded to the need for nurses during the Civil War and was appointed to the Union Hotel Hospital and took charge of Louisa M.Alcott's ward after she left. In 1863 Miss [Dorothea] Dix sought her services for a hospital at New Haven and next she went to Fredericksburg, Va. where she found the hillsides covered with wounded soldiers. From Fredericksburg Miss Mitchell again returned to Washington and took charge of a ward of fifty beds. The soldiers called her "our Nellie" and she devoted nearly her entire pay as an army nurse to relieving the wants of the suffering. After the war ended Ellen taught school in several places and then entered her name as a student of medicine in the office of Dr. C. C. Halsey, Montrose. She graduated from the Woman's Medical College of New York in 1870 and was eventually appointed a medical missionary to Maulmain, Burmah, by the Baptist Board of Foreign Missions in 1879. Here she founded a leper hospital and during the 22 years of her work only made one visit to the United States, in 1889, visiting her home here and obtaining additional instruction at New York hospitals. About six months ago, Dr. Mitchell's health began to fail and she had decided to return home on April 6. On the very day set for her departure, the end came peacefully. [Ellen E. Mitchell was featured in the book Woman's Work in the Civil War: A Record of Heroism, Patriotism and Patience, published in 1868].
