VAST LONDON HOSPITAL for CHILDREN.
The Committee earnestly desire to raise funds which
shall enable them to establish the Hospital in more suit-
able buildings. The premises now occupied are crowded
and inconvenient, causing additional expense from that
circumstance. It is impossible even to purchase on whole-
sale terms many articles of daily consumption from want
of room for stowage, every inch of available space being
occupied. There is a daily demand for more beds, and the
staff of nurses would be able to attend upon more children,
but no more can be admitted in the present building.
£B,OOO at least is required to carry out this much-wished-
for and urgent scheme.
Contributions will be thankfully received by the Tree-
surer,lE.S4,Norris, Esq., Shadwell ; or by
