refuge from the tortures of the white

the efforts of DR.. George Eaves, the

or persons in the first stage of the dis
ease. Gradually individual cottages were
built and furnished in regular hospital
style, which accommodates .eonvalescent
patients. These cottages are equipped
with screened sleeping porches. and it
is here the patients spend much of their
time in the open air.
The pavilion, long connected building,
houses the bed cases and also includes
