In the hope that the work may not-be cur- tailed, the trustees of the institution have sent @ circular Ieiter to Westerly and other towns and ciiies in the state ich reads as follow: ‘Owing to the constantly increasing number of patients sent to this hospi- tal, not only from your town, but also| from most of the others in the state.| the trustees of this hospital find them- selves fast approachinz the time when, to their sorrow it will be unable to take in all the patients that come to its doors. “During all the from 1868, when this hospital was opened, it has never turned away a proper patient from its care, but with the increased lation and greater expense, it finds itself facing the problem of ILthese years the expense hospital has been met by be- n1. donations from charitable people, except that fhe city of Provi- of the ‘patients coming from Your town has rarely, if_ever, paid jthe Rhode Ts'and hospital anyvthing for the care of .its indigent sick and injur- d, and the time has come when the rospital will have ‘to ask you to help ear the expense of caring for them. he hospital would 1i continue to carry on this humanitarian in the -future, but for reasons mentioned above, it will ‘be unablée to do so.
