1888: St. Francis Hospital in the Early Years

As one passes the huge facility on the corner of Hamilton Avenue and Chambers Street today, it is quite difficult to envision the early years of the hospital. Five hundred total persons were treated during the year 1886! Incredible. I have a very early photo of St. Francis Hospital in the library files, and will post it in the future.
