ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL. Gray's-inn-?road.
Patron—The QU EEN.
This Hospital is entirely devoted to destitution in iti most
pitiable form, viz., that which is accompanied by sicknes s and
disease, and is now of sufficient magnitude that, w itl i ade-
quate support, it may be rendered capable of admittfn g into
na wards a very large proportion of the casual sick of this
great metropolis. It requires but the funds in order to have
600 beds immediately available for the reception of tlate se the
most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover, it g.,atui-
tously affords medical advice and medicine to more, on the
average, than 2,000 out-patients a week.
