The annual meeting Of the board of
directors of the general hospital was
largely attended last night in the office
of Dr. Timothy I'll. Bishop, 215 Church
street. The principal business was the
election Of officers. Two resolutions
future bearing on the reports of the
hospital authorities hereafter. In the
recent annual report of the hospital it
was seen that the expenses of the hos
pital We're more than the different
amounts received for running the in
stitution and the resolutions passed
last night will mean that the balance
to be reported at the annual meetings
in the future will be on the right side.
The resolution was as follows: Re-
solved that the prudential committee be
directed to so order the expenses of the
hospital for the current year as to
bring them within the income that can
reasonably be anticipated.
The other resolution was on the resig-
nation of the retiring president, Cen
eral s. e. Merwin, as president of the
association and was as follows: Re-
solved that the warmest thanks of the
board be rendered to the retiring presi-
dent, General Merwin, for the unwear-
led services in behalf of the hospital
during the fourteen years last past and
the foresight and assiduous care with
which he has conducted the manage
ment of the institution.
1t was very much regretted when it
was known that General Merwin would
decline to accept office for another
year, as his work at the head Of the
governing board has been very faith
