This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
muted by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adeqna to support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its 'e ,ards 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 medic al advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 8,000 vat-patients a week.
The Weekly Board feel it their Imperative duty to snake an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued supp4t,
to enable them to admit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.
