Mrs. Raymond's Generosity to the
HOSPITAL.


OF the many generous benefactors of th,
Maine General Hospital and liberal contrib
utors for the extension Of its usefulness, M
enc has shown more constant sympathy OF
more uniform and sustained interest than
Mrs. c. M. Raymond.
By repeated generous aid she has given
proof of her hearty sympathy with its char
liable aims, and has made sure her title to
the gratitude of its officers and friends. By
her latest act, in withdrawing from the
privacy she voluntarily sought at the height
of her fame, and once more in public exer
cising her wonderful gift of song, she has Sc.
cured a reputation for charity not inferior to
her rank as an artist.
The directors can only express their CRATE
full appreciation of her acts-they cannot
adequately praise them.
In recognition Of the repeated acts of gen
crosby on the part of Mrs. Raymond, in be.
half of this charity, the directors order thai
the proceeds of the concerts given by her
for the benefit of the Maine General Hospi-
tai. amounting TO $2500, be kept as separate
fund to be kno 6n as the "Annie Louise Cary
Fund.-" so that the treasurer's records may
show how greatly the funds of the hospital
have been increased by her kind efforts in ita
behalf.
RESOLVED, That thanks are also due and heartily
extended to the gentlemen and ladies who so
kindly assisted Mrs Raymond in the concert
given under her auspices. and who SO materially
added to its success and brilliancy. May they
through long and prosperous careers. look back
with pleasure upon this service rendered to suf
fering fellow men and women, and find reward fol
their labors in the consciousness of blessings con-
ferred on others.
Resotued That to all who gratuitously contrib
uted to make the concert a success, and to cause
all its proceeds. without the slightest dminution
for the payment of expenses, to go to the uses Of
the hospital, the directors make grateful &C
acknowledgement.
Resolved, That the directors acknowledge the
thoughtful courtesy of the Maine Central Railroad
Company, through Payson Tucker, general man
ager IN enabling them Ito enjoy with Mr.. and
Mrs. Raymond and their friends so delightful ar
excursion on its mountain division.
The foregoing action of the directors of the
Maine General Hospital was unanimously adopt
ed at meeting held at the Crawford House
White Mountains, July IL, 1889.
