to meet all their obligations and 10
keep the hospital open
The cost of running the hospital
is between three and four thousand

times little more, sometimes a
good deal less These figures in
clude the support of three Free
beds for the use of residents OF the
city of Fredericksburg. the Virginia
Knox, the French Memorial and he
Seymour White. also the care Of
Confederate soldier for four weeks
in the year.
The members OF the Advisory
Board, after heartily endorsing the
work of the ladies. the methods and
management of the hospital resolved

results, proving the generous sup
