Per John Green's book, "A New Bern Album" on page 73, the Coor-Cook House was Stanley Hospital during the Union occupation and was the Officer's Ward. Private Weist was most likely not hospitalized there. More likely, Foster General Hospital that was encompassed in that block bounded by Craven-Broad-Middle-New Streets. HTH
