ROYAL FR EE HOSPITAL,
Gray's-inn-road.
This Hospital is entirely devoted to destitution in its meet
pitiable form, viz., that which is accompanied by sickness and
disease, and is now of sufficient magnitude that, with ade-
quate support, it may be rendered capable of admitting into
its wards a very large proportion of the casual sick of this
great metropolis ; moreover, it gratuitously affords medical
advice and medicine to more, on the average, than 2,000 out-
patients a week.
