ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road.
Patron—The QUEEN.
This Hospital is entirely devoted to destitution in its most
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. It requires but the funds in order to have
1930 beds immediately available for the reception of these the
Thost wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover, it gratui-
tously affords medical advice and medicine to more, on the
average, than 2,000 out-patients a week.
