Opposite SRR EREFT [ | PLAINVILLE NEWS HOSPITAL BRIVE T0 - BE CONDUCTED HERE | Has Quota of $10,000—Town to - Be Thoroughly Canvassed | THEODORE ROBEIITSON DIES, Plainville Team Wins Game—Fungeal of Henry Miller Held—Auto Vic- tim Regains Consciousness—Party for Stanley Coats—Brief Items. A great drive for funds for the New Britain General hospital’started today. Plainville’s quota is $10,000, and it is the hope of the committee in charge, of which S S. Gwillim is chairman, that the entire amount can be raised. Plainville naturally looks to Britain for hospital service at time of accident and sickness. It looks also to such a hospital for nurses. Almost everyone is familiar with the distressing shortage of nurses that has existed for a long time. “In conncction with the new hos- pital buildings, is a nurses’ training school, which will enable Plainville to secure needed nurses’' assisfance. Plainville’s quota is comparatively small in comparisen with the total sum of $600,000 and is based on average amount of patients this town .has been sending to the present hos- pital. It does not take into consider- ation the large increase in per cent that naturally would have obtained if adequate service could have been given. A great many people went to Hartford who naturally would have gone to - New Britain if they could have gotten in, but the crowded con- ditions in the present hospital made such impossible. The committee in charge of the local drive is to make a thorough canvass of the town. The Plainville Trust Co. has con- sentéd to act as a depository for funds. It is urgently hoped that the citizens will take advantage of this offer and leave their subscriptions with the bank. A hospital is an insurance for health as against sickness and death just as surely as is accident and life inurance. Plainville,-not having any hospital of its own, and being with- in a few milés of New Britain, cer- tainly needs the assistance of the very best there is and will be glad to do its share toward obtaining it. If every one will pian to do indi- vidually what he can, the quota of this town will be raised. All the local factories will be so- licited during the campaign. The plants that are closed will also be asked to contribute and the officials will be interviewed. There are a great many of accidents that need hospital attention throughout the actories and employes appreciate the New the Theodore Robertson Theodore Robertson, aged 74, of 12 Camp street, died at his home shortly after 7 o'clock Saturday night. Mr. Robertson had been suffering from peritonitis and recently underwent a slight operation at Hartford.’ He felt better a few days ago, but was strick- en suddenly after eating supper Sat- urday. He was not married. He was born in Canton, but had been a resi- dent of Plainville for a number of years. He did not work, but helped considerably around the small farm. He is survived by three brothers, O. H. Robertson, who is town assessor, George_and Frank, all local residents. Four nephews also survive him, A coincidence in the death of Mr. Robertson was the fact that his death occured just 19 years to a day from the date which his mother passed away. The funeral will be held at 1:30 o’clock tomorrow afternaon from the home, Rev. W. G. @riffin, pastor of the Forestville Methodist church, will officiate. Burial will be in the Forest- ville cemetery. Plainville Team Wins The Plainville foatball team defeat- ed the Indians of Meriden at Rock- well's field yesterday afternoon. The score was 20 to 0.

Miller of Chureh street was held at 2 o'clock this afternoon from his home. Rev. E. C. Gillette officiated. Burial was in the West cemetery. Regains Consciousness Mike Casorio of South Washington street, who was struck by an auto- mobile driven by Fred Holfelder of New Britain, Saturday night on West Main street, has regained conscious- ness. On a thorough examination, it found that he was suffering from a fractured skull. At first his condi- tion was not thought serious. When he was struck, he was only partly dazed but at the hospital complained of severe pains in the head. Later he lapsed into unconsciousness. During that time he was operated upon and nine splinters of bone were removed from his head. His condition this morning was re- garded as being fair. Mr. Casorio is employed at the home of Edwin Hills as a gardener and helper. He is mar- ried and has one child.
