tilde Hospital Asportation:
We, whos nunies are heinln subjoined,
lining citizens, tax payers and long resi
ilenls of Hyde Turk, in Siianton, have
learned thai by your anion the property
on the southwest comer of .Main ave
nue and Washburn street Is to lie used In
the establishment of a hospital for the
care of the sick, Injured, etc. These
premises being situated In a densely pop
ulated portion of the city, among of our
homes and long established residences,
but In like proximity to several churches
und one or more parsonages, business
places, etc., would. If used lor the above
named purpose, be to ns a constant dis
comfort; and also ouuse a very material
itejiresslou 111 value of the propertl.M
owned, used and held by us for the above
mimed purposes. .
We, therefore, while heartily endorsing
the object for which your association
was created, and being at all times will
ing to give it our reasonable support, en
couragement und assistance, do for the
reasons above set forth most strongly pro
test against the establishment of a hos
pital at Ihe place aforesaid, ami earnestly
request your reconsideration of the na
tion alreadv taken by you. and that you
will place the said Institution in a local
ity (whicli muv readily lie found) ns will
render it flee from our herein slated ob
jections, but equally desirable for and
adapted to Its purpose.
Ninety-two names In the total ore
signed to the petitions. The case was
presented by speeches from the sever
al present. The hospital board contend
that the Freeman home Is a model
situation for a luwtiltul. The building
Is. commodious und it was pointed out
last night that when the state author
ities .visit the hospital the commanding
appearance of the building would net
greatly . toward munificent support.
The members of the association ure
n verse to surrendering their plan to
open the hospltul In the Freeman home.
They believe that the majority of West
Siders are In favor of the location. It
was said last night that if the wishes
of the complainants be considered it
will place other locations nt the mercy
of future remonstrants. The site com
mittee, consisting of 1. 1. Kvans, W,
II Freeman and lr. Paine, wns ap
pointed to consider the ndvisahility of
tenting tne parsonage una iiiun rramit
the chief objection to the hospital.
