Ann May Hospital
Dedicat0ry Exercises

The dedicatorv exercises of the Ann
May Hospital, Spring Lake, Thurs
dayafternoon.
Following a Buffet luncheon att
O'Clock folks of the surrounding
neighborhood began pouring in and
with all available room in the lower
halls occupied. V. Ct Robinson of Me-
dia, Pa, a prominent figure in the
hospitals development, acting as
chairman of the day, announced Rev
Hiram Bennett, pastor of the Asbury
Park Episcopal church. who delivered
an Invocation. after which Mrs. K G..
Roebling of Spring Lake and Trenton,
president of the board of managers of
the hospital, gave an interesting talk
in which she outlined the general pol
icy of the institution. She declared
that the hospital did not cater to any
particular clan or creed and that no
case was turned away from the insti-
tuition without consideration Mrs
Roebling also spoke of the shortage
of nurses at the present time, but an
nounced that the situation would prob
ably be remedied in the near future
She introduced movement which
she said had grown entirely from her
own ideas, but which she hopes
would be put into practice at the hos
pital tan early date. Her suggestion
was for the establishment of volun-
teer aid service like that in vogue at
hospitals in many Of the larger cities.
The plan calls for a group of
women who voluntarily visit the hos
pital, sitting with patients, reading
to them, writing for them, waiting
upon them and many other things
which would not only be big
achievement in comforting the pa
tients. but would also save time and
steps for the nurses.
Next came one of the most forceful
addresses of the day, when Rabbi
Foster of Newark, held his hearers
in rapt attention for more than 90
minutes.

Railroad and Canal Dreams
Of AIlaire's Founder
FIRST CHARTERED RAILROAD
AND CANAL IN MONMOUTH.

The late George v. Sneden's history
of the Railroads Monmouth County
delivered before the Monmouth Coun-
ty Historical Association a number of
years ago. WAS printed last week in
The Freehold Transcript He states
the first railroad to obtain charter
to build railroad in this county was
the Freehold and Jamesburg Rail
road by an act OF the Legislature up
proved March II. 1S51.n
Mr.. Sneden erred in this as the
Monmouth and Middlesex Agricultur-
al Railroad and Transportation Com
pany by an act of the Legislature in
1886 was empowered to construct,a
road from the Delaware and Raritan
Canal at or near Scudder's Mills in
Middleaex to Middletown Point creek
at the village Of Middletown Point,
passing through the village of Free
hold with branches to mari beds on
the Manasquan River or elsewhere.
Road TO be completed d in ten years or
the charter void Books of subscrip-
tion were opened and u part of the cap
ital stock subscribed, but the road in
1887 had not been located. The capi-
tal stock of this Company was $3.50, :
600. We have always understood this
route was surveyed and staked and
some of the latter remained tor many
years as mute, evidence Of this early
attempt of railroading where the in
vestors lost all their money,
AS in the above venture which was
projected mainly to provide trans-
portation for the Howell Works,
wned by James p. Allaire, in this
connection we give an account of
another project for the same purpose:
The Manasquan and Barnegat Bay
Company in 1888 was authorized by
the Legislature to make a canal from
Manasquan River to the headwaters
of Barnegat Bay at Layton's mill
pond in Monmouth. The charter be-
came void in consequence of the work
not having been completed within
the time specified by the charter.
Thus ended the dreams of James
p. AlIaire, the founder of the Desert
ed Village and ultimately sealed the
fate of the immense iron works and
buildings. He had early found that
while the bog iron ore was plentiful
the finished product had to be trans
ported in wagons to the boats at
TMiddletown Point or Red Bank which
proved very expensive.
To transport the ore from the
SauancIim meadows he built a canal
to his works. This, the first and only
canal in the County, took a course
through the woods located on the
westerly side of the railroad just be-
fore coming to the railroad crossing
on the main road and it's passage is
still marked by the clearing of trees
and depression of the ground.
