to Have Resigned at Re-
quest of Governor
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

NEW YORK. Sept. est became
known today that DIR. Robert T. Irvine
of Ossining, physician at Sing Sing
prison for the past II years and one
of the best known surgeons in the
state, resigned last June by request of
Governor Hughes. He was accused of
taking brfbes from prisoners.
According to one prison official, DR..
Irvine saw to it that no man who
could pay the price came in contact
with the rock pile or other hard labor.
1t was generally understood that the
lowest fee was $50. There was no limit
at the other end. And $50 would only
keep you in the hospital for three or
four months. If you fell back in your
payments you were pronounced cured
and out you went to the shoe shop or
the brush department.
