larger building on Cherry Street, below Eighteenth. Outgrowing these quarters in the course of eight years, it was decided to purchase ground in a new locality and erect a large and commodious building adapted solely to its own educational purposes. In 1896 a suitable location was found at Eighteenth, Hutton-wood and Hamilton Streets, and after the preparation of satisfactory plans, ground was broken and the erection of the building begun. The corner-stone was laid with Masonic ceremonies January 13, 1897, and the structure completed in August, 1897. The building was opened for the Eall Term on September 1st, and formally dedicated on October 4th. In honor of its founder, the hospital has been named the Garretson Hospital. It occupies a large portion of the first floor of the new building, and consists of a public ward with seven beds and a private ward with two. There are also a nurses’ room, kitchen, a beautifully furnished bath-room and etherization and recovery rooms. 3
