H. B. MACRUDER
TRUST fund AND
ITS OPERATION

The operation of MagrUder Me-
mortal hospital, while beyond re-
proach when all the facts are
known, nevertheless has been
open to criticism over the past
few years.
And the fault, the public feels.
has been due not so much to TIE
actual operation of the hospital,
but to the fact that that same
public has never been in complete
knowledge of either the trust
fund establishing the hospital nor
the board of trustees set up for
its operation.
That is something that this col
umn will attempt to straigl1ten up
in this the third in series of ar
ticles about Magruder Memorial
hospital and the campaign which
will open February II, to add a
new wing to that institution.
The hospital, as we know it now.
is an outright gift to the citizens
of Ottawa county, through the gen
erosity of the late Howard B. Ma
gruder and his wife, Myra s. N.
Magruder-and for that reason is
known as the H. B. MagrUder Me
mortal Hospital. Not one cent Of
anyone's money was invested in
the original cost of the hospital.
Mr.. Magruder, following the
death of his wife on April %
1887, consulted his very good
friend, Dr. Carl J. Yeislev now
living in Bakersfield, Calif) with
regard to the question: What
worthwhile cause can my money
best serve when |, too, pass on?
DR.. Yeisley, being the good citi-
zen and friend that he was, sug-
gested that trust fund be set IN,
with the thought in mind of build
ing hospital to keep bright the
memory Of Mr. Magruder in the
hearts of all Ottawa countians up
on his demise.
Mr.. Magruder Immediately
seized the vision in DR.. Yeisley's
mind, and set up trust fund that
would provide for his worldly
needs for the rest of his living
days. The trust was to include all
property, right, title and interests
of Mr.. Magruder, together with
that Of the estate of his wife
Transfer was effected May 13
1887.
Trustees named by Mr.. Magru-
der to handle the affairs of the
estate and the trust itself were
Edwin C. Neal, now deceased; DR.
Carl j. Yeisley, both of Port Gin
ton; and Erwin r. Effler of Tole
do. Harry Stensen has since beer
named to the board following the
death of Mr. Neal in 1916.
1t has been the duty of these
three men over the years to carry
out the wishes of Mr.. Magruder
These wishes included buildins
the present hospital, upon the
death of the institutions benefac
tor. Remainder of the money, upor
completion of Magruder Hospital
was to be kept in the trust fund
the income from its investments tt
be used for operational and main
tenance upkeep.
However, it was Mr.. Magruder'!
express wish that none of thu
money be used for furnishing tht
hospital. Nor was the remaininy
money in the trust fund to be usec
for any purposes whatsoever, ex

provided through the generous
donations of the people of Ottaw;
