This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to
establish the principle of free admission to the sick poor,
without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is
wholly dependent for support on voluntary contributions
and legacies.
It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in
addition to this, the average number of attendance of the
destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged be-
tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly.
The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the
benevolent, as the premises of this hospital are capable of
containing several hundred more beds had the Committee
the requisite funds to maintain them.

Contributions are received by- their bankers, Messrs.
Brown, Hansom, and Co., Abchnrch-lane ; also by Messrs.
Coutts and Co.; Drummond and Co. ; Glyn and Co, ;
