ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,

way Terminus, at King's-cross.
Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCH, K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.
This was the first hospital to introducesiette principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely
isto desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which
panied by sickness and disease, and is nonwlen.aecom-
ot sufficient
maffnitude 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
f,ARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued support,
'4' enable them to admit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.
