The Sip Bottling Corporation be
gan operations Friday in it's new

Owing to certain rumors that have
been going the rounds in connection
with the treatment received by Percy
Sharber while at the Kings Daugh.
tiers Hospital, feel that it is my du'
ty and | owe it to the management
of that institution to make this state
ment. The reason that my son was
taken to Nashville was, first, that his
uncle is a surgeon of that city and
naturally expected that he do the
operative treatment necessary; fur
Their, he requestedthat this patient be
brought to him. Now feel sure that
the parties making the statement
that he was removed because he had
not money to pay his hospital keep
will be glad to know the facts as they
are, and will take great pleasure in
correcting the false impression they
may have left with their neighbors.
Ny son received the kindest attention
while at the hospital, but no differ
ent from every case that has the good
fortune to be there during his sick
ness or accident.

Justice Lansden's action in this mat

He has sent the telegram that / re-

fair to assume that similar messages

the lawyers of Columbia and else

In charge of the case.
In this case the attending physi-
clan was three times consulted by
the management, and in every con-
versation the Hospital Board urged
that the patient be brought to the
Hospital If there was the slightest
need. The physician assured the
Board that it was not then case for
hospital treatment, and should 1t be-
come SO, he would then bring her in.
The physicians knowing the struggles
that the Hospital has had to live,
have considerably asked it to take
only the cases that they knew to be
in actual need.
An old gentleman was brought to
the Hospital, who was found i'll alone
in a rooming-house. Friends made
up purse Of $3.50 for his first
weeks board, and he was taken for
that amount $500 less than the
regular price.) The next week his
son, who was drawing good salary,
scent $1,000 for his care. He would
have been kept, had his son refused
to pay for him, as charity patient,
as long as there was need of hos
pital service. He was able to be up
when he left and the physician dir

accused of refusing charity patient.
You will pardon us for being person

An unfortunate difficulty occurred
between two young boys, Benny Fer

Sharber was badly cut. He was
taken to the Hospital by his attend

was prepared, the patient occupied 1t

taken, at the request Of his uncle.

boy could be under the medical care
of his uncle. There was no question
whatever of charge. It was an emer-
gency case; he was placed there at
the instance of his physicians, 1t was
not asked that he be entered as a
charity patient. and the question OF
Hospital fee was not discussed at all.
There has been no charge made
for his nights keep, and should he
