Read the passage about the life of Clara Barton. Clara Barton was born on December 25, 1821, in Oxford, Massachusetts. As a child, Clara was very shy. She first found her calling while caring for her brother after he fell from a rafter in their barn. Despite the fact that most teachers were still men at the time, Clara became a teacher at the age of 15, as well as one of the first women to work for the federal government at the US Patent Office. In 1881, Clara opened the first chapter of the American Red Cross in the United States and served as its first president. The American Red Cross is a relief organization that offers assistance to victims of such disasters as the 1889 Johnstown Flood and the 1900 Galveston Flood. She served as president for 23 years before resigning amidst claims that money was being mishandled internally.

The Civil War was a bloody war fought between the years 1861–1865. During the war, Clara sought to help the soldiers in any way she could. She collected needed supplies and distributed them to the Union Army. These supplies included items such as food, bedding, and clothing. However, Clara was not content to sit on the sidelines; she often risked her own life to care for soldiers wounded in battle. For these deeds, she was nicknamed the "Angel of the Battlefield.” When the war ended in 1865, Clara worked for the War Department helping in various ways.

the injuries sustained by Clara Barton’s brother
the work Clara Barton did for the War Department
the number of soldiers who died in the Civil War
