The widow whose inf1rmities have
made her helpless occupies a small pri-
vate room. Even that is about to be
taken away from her and she will have
to lie in the general ward among

She has no children, and when her

Several months ago Mrs. Barclay left
her nieces and went to the Home for

She paid small sum in order that she
