The KINGS DAUGHTERS,

Wednesday October 18th.
Mr.. Ball then, on behalf of the ladies
who have labored indefatigably in
building the annex, formally turned
the building over to Mr.. Worth Hull
fish, one of the trustees. The latter,
receiving the same, made some appro-
nriate and well-timed remarks, in
which he alluded to the labor of love
which the ladies conducting the Infirm-
arv bad exhibited in the work they
had 50 nobly undertaken aud so sue
ccs-fully prosecuted.
The Infrmary has for some years
been an honored Alexandria institution,
aud it, benefits are being felt and appre-
ciatrd more and more every day. As
i. stands now three buildings have
practically been converted into one
the old Alexandria Orphan Asylum,
the school building and III, Widows
Home having been merged into one
convenient and roomy structure. By
this mctamorphosis the facilities Of the
Iuirmary have been greatly enlarged,
aud lis mission Of mercy and useful
ness will be more sensibly felt than
ever before.
In the new building are the follow
ing rooms First noor-the q. II. and
Catharine Smoot ward, three cots, furn-
iShed and supplied with every convent
ence by Mrs. X. q. Taylor the NJ. +.
Church South ward, one cot, furnished
and kept up by the congregation of the
Southern Methodist Church ; the AL
bert Fairfax ward, three cots, furnished
in most luxurious style by the Young
Mems Guild of Christ Church aud other
young men of the city who were in
duced to become interested in the ln-
Urinary through the eXertions of Miss
Kate Stuart; dining room, kitchen, pan
try, bath rooms, &c. Second iloor-the
Eieemosynary Society ward, two cots
the n. V. d. Mason ward the Child
ren's ward, four cots, endowed by vari-
ous children's societies and most pref
tily and attractively furnished, and the
Rev. G.. A. Smith ward. furnished by
Christ Church Circle, bath rooms, linen
presses, &c. A handsome window in
memory of the late Miss Julia Johns,
the founder of the Infirmary, has been
placed so as to light the hall and stair
way in the new building. The old
building too has been renovated, re-
painted and repaired and is now truly
IN ornament to the city. The work
has been done under the supervision of
Messrs. P. B. Hooe, J. T. Burke and
w. Hulfsh, the building committee of
the trustees, who spent much time and
gave the work much attention. Mr..
Glenn Brown was the architect and the
builders were Mr.. Joseph Rodgers and
the late Mr.. VIM. Gibson The build
ings are now being fitted with furnaces,
&c, and will be made thoroughly COM
Portable for the winter. The next work
to be done is to renew the fencing and
improve the grounds.
The Infrmary is now in charge OF
Miss Adams, the eilicieut matron,
whose aim is to make all the inmates
of the institution as comfortable and
happy as possible.
