I deleted text that I thought was unnecessary for the article, either because the tone was wrong or because there was no citation. If anyone can re-write it to more it suitable and add references, please feel free to undo my edits. Here's the text I removed:
"...where the nurses treated the patients badly. Anna, seeking a change to this treated them nicely. She wrote letters for the wounded people. She was well thought of by the patients and was generally well greeted in each room she entered. She was thrown out after announcing the news of a patients marriage, causing the other patients to cheer.
During the war, Etherdige had tried to save her best-friend's boyfriend, Edwin Powers; however, in spite of her care, Powers died. she was unable to do so and he died in her arms. She was nursing him on a ship ready to get to a hospital boat. After the war, the reporter tried talking to her but she said "Talk to these marching men. Quit making a heroine out of me!". She was trying to heal a boy right when he was shot by a cannonball." "
