A very heavy and unavoidable_expens.: has been incurred
by a general and thorough repair of the whole buildings, in
consequence of which the three wings ar now completed.
Within the last few years all fees on the admission of pa-
tients have been abolished, the sisters and n arses placed in
situations of comfort better adapted to the nature of their
duties ; and the accommodation for the in-patients now so
extended, as to admit above 500, and their diet and general
comforts very materially improved. The accomplishm.ent
of these objects so essential to the welf.are of the patients,
has incurred a very heavy expense of annual expenditure,
any the governors have, within the last few years, rebuilt
t church of St. Bartholomew the Less.

during the last year, of sick, wounded, maimed,
