THE EARLY YEARS OF ST. FRANCIS HOSPITAL
SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1874
GAZETTE
A gentlemen informed us yesterday that one of our physicians who has been visiting St. Francis Hospital in an official way, was quite enthusiastic in his praises of the manner in which the institution is kept. The hospital is the perfection of cleanliness in every part, and the attentions of the ladies are unremitting, and exceedingly kind.
There are about 20 persons now in the hospital, who each extol the manner the institution is managed. He spoke particularly of it nonsectarian character. No word is uttered, and no rule is laid down with which the most sensitive on this subject could find fault. This is gratifying, and it is still more gratifying that an institution has been founded in our midst where the afflicted can find a home, and where they find friends and all they want. The County Medical Society, by invitation have so arranged themselves in classes as to furnish to the institution regular visitations.
