ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in th immediate v'cinity of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, at Ring's-cross.
Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BM CLEUCTI, K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.
This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of eovernors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
panied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week.
The Weekly Board feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued support,
to er.able them to P dmit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.
Contributions are received by the Treasurer, Edward
Mas errnan, Esq., Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Coutts and
Co. ; Drummond and Co. ; Herries and Co. ; Ransom and
Co. ; Prescott, Grote, and Co.; Smith, Payne, and Co. ; Giyn
and Co. ; Jones Loyd and Co. ; Barclay and Co. ; Denison
and Co. ; Mama, Deacon, and Co. ; Overend, Gurney, and
Co. ; Nisbet and Co. ; Messrs. J. Barned and CO., Liverpool
and at the Hospital.
