Hospital Becomes Reality
After Four Years of Activity

The opening of the Garrett County
Memorial hospital in Oakland next
week brings to a realization a project
that had been under way since Feb
ruary Z, 1916, and chiefly in the mind
Of one man, the late George w. Loar
for a number of years previous to
that.
Started four years ago as the re-
suit of a bequest of the late Mr.
Loar which allocated $4,000 to-
ward the construction of d hospital,
his dream has been brought to sue
cessful conclusion through the efforts
of number of local persons, and by
the combined contributions of hun
dreds of interested citizens which
came from as far as the Bahama
islands.
An account of the details and
events gives the complete picture.
Mr.. Loar died January 27, 1916, at
the age of 70. He had been a promi-
nent jeweler in Grafton for SO years
and resided at the Loar home, Second
street, Oakland, for a number years
after that Under the terms of his
will which he executed ON July 18,
1914, he left $135,0O0 for construction
and equipping of hospital building
at Oakland. A codicil to the will exc
cuted July 10, 1915, added another
$35, 900.
Designated The Name
He designated the name Garrett
County Memorial Hospital" and pro-
vided an additional $4,000 for support
and maintenance to be used following
its official opening.
He made his bequest dependent
upon several requirements-tha title
to such hospital be transferred to
the County Commissioners provided
that steps be taken toward it's erection
that they agree by resolution of the
Commissioners and an advisory COM
mittee Of five persons.
1t was necessary that the Commits
sioners accept the bequest with its
regulations within one year from the
date of his death.
The advisory committee was to in
clude one person each from the Gar
rett National and First National
Banks of Oakland, the president of
the City Council of Oakland; Mrs. L.
F. Tower or if she did not serve, then
president of the Garrett County
Chapter, American Red Cross; and
Dr.. Thomas A. Gender, Jr, or in
case he did not serve, then a member
of the medical profession here.
Mr.. Loar had expressed the desire
that the building be erected ON the
Harry Helbig property at the north
edge of town. j. NJ. Jarboe, f. X.
Jones, Oakland; and w. NJ. Watkins,
Grafton, were named executors of the
will.
Following the announcement of the
bequest and the regulations involved,
individuals and organizations moved
swiftly to give backing to the Com
missioners. Mayor L. M. Fraley and
organization leaders expressed them
selves and at meeting of the County
Commissioners February Is, 1916, ad-
ditional support was rendered. 1t was
indicated that formal acceptance
would be made within six weeks.
