On the morning after my arrival
hero, Mamies Haum took ma down
to a large building* Jocularly called
tho "Arl<," Introduced ino to Dii.
Thomas J. Workman, and laduccd
lii.ni to accept mo aw a student. The
Doctor's otnco wan situated in the

wan ventilated by tho from door,
and lighted by a narrow, long win

Here 1 pored over tho book* my pre

In a. procession to celebrate the pass

one of tho students bearing a flag
on which there wan inscribed:
"There Is a point beyond which en

After the death of Dr. Workman
it waa my good fortune to bo re

Would that these ideals were more
dominant in tills strenuous age!
On my return from the army, I

The kindly, and in many instances,
the affectionate, relations cultivated
in my intimate intercouix- with the
I e? ple of Camden. as phy sician and
Irit'd. became a tradition in my
family after fate removed m.e to a
la '.:?r field. I am proud to say that
the idea of this building; dedicated
to t!ie relief of suffering humanity,
was born of this tradition. When
your energetic Hoard of Trade wrote
to my soli of the projected hospital,
lie asked my advite, and 1 unhesi
tatingly urged liini to build it. 1
niad*> only one' personal request,
namely, that this hospital should, be
unhiue in one respect, in that a part
of it shall he devoted to out-door
treatment a dispensary, not the
kind that has become odious in these
parts, but a place whe.ro the toilers
of the town and vicinity may conn
freely and without restraint to seek
relief for their so-called minor ail
ments, which are often more serious
than the more dreaded diseases.
My observation among the toilers of
the great city, and among the labor
ers here, especially the colored peo
pie. had demonstrated i hut for each
eaaa of fever, or a brok'ftu lug, <J e
mandiug treatment .at the hospital,
there will ihj fifty or more cut mu of

Sir, for the medical profession of
Kershaw County, I wlnh to express
lo your son, through you, our ap
preciation and .thanks for his gift. ,
Through this hospital we will be
able to render professional service
of the best and most cslentiflc type
to those citizens of Kershaw County,
regardless of color, to whom, with
out auch a hospital such service is
Impossible We the Kershaw Coun
ty Medical* Association, of which you
Sir, were a charter mem her, and
are now an honorary member,
pledges Itself to show Its apprecia
tion by rendering here the best pro
f. ssiAnal service in its power to the
charity patienta of this hospital.
For the Trustees of John Burdell
j .Memorial Fund, I wish to thank
your 80n for enhancing the value of
t !wu hjund Hy erecting this hospi
tal lie/ has -made it nnneccessary for
any oO tha: Kami to be expended for
huildllig purposes, and the whole of
1 1 h income can toward the main
. ten.anAfl>_>of the Hospital. Hy hav
ing- our own hospital we can aid
niaiiy more of the suffering poor
than wo could if we had to send
Uicm elsewhere.
Speaking for tin board of incor
porators of the Hospital, which
Hoard is composed of moil repre?
denting Chamber of (Commerce
of Cain don, representatives of the
Medical Society, and the .trustees
of the Bind el I Fund, wo most heart!
ly thank Mr. Barueh, through your
self for iliis hospital. You sir,
have had 'Jie pleasure of serving
In mauy hospitals, some of theni
the finest, in our country, but 1
L'eoi no hesitancy in- saying in your
presence, that we have here a hos
pital of which wo may well fool
proud. This hospital is second to
none of its size that I have seen,
and 1 feel sure that yon can truth
fully say the same. That rainy af
ternoon on which Mr. Baruch said
to us standing in Captain Shannon's
office: "I have decided to give
you the hospital" is indeed a mem
orable day in tho history of Ker
shaw County.
Speaking for this board 1 wish
to thank the Ladies Auxiliary Soci
ety for tho service they have ren
dered in furnishing the hospital.
One of our board said to mo long
before this hospital was in view:
"If tho women got behind tho move
ment, the hospital will come." You
have proven that ho was right, but
1 want to urge that you continue
your work. The hospital needs a
VVomans Auxiliary Society as much
now and in tho future as it has
heretofore. Other citizens of our
town have rendered material assist
ance as have visitors. To them 1
extend assuranceo of our gratitude.
1 wish Sir that. 1 could speak for
them, to whotfi this gift of your
son moans most, but that 1 r:m not
do. After I his life is over and ho
has passed through* the Valley of
tho Shadow, over there, tho thanks
of the "sick wjio are unable to pay"
will bo expressed fittingly to your
son. 1 can only 'say that the poor
of Kershaw County will remember
the name of Baruch long after the
walls of this building shall have
I crumbled into dust.
1 wish to thank your son, thru'
| you for every citizen of Kershaw
County, and .1 wish to extend to
you Dr. Baruch the hearty thanks
of all of its who have had to with
the planning and building of this
hospital, for your most valuable ad
| vice and suggestions, and wo hope
thr.t : will continue to advise
with us in tho running of the hos
pital, and l am sure I voice the'
; sentiment of all concerned when 1
i say that you will always bo welcome

Dr. Baruch, I gratefully accept

and for the County 1 thank you,
and through you l 'thank Mr. iior
uai d M. Bar urh, I ho generous giver.
After tho reading of Dr. BurdeU's
acceptance of i h<* hospital, I ) r . Ha
ruch roao and aaid:
These word a of pr^? Burdoll testl
fy to tho fact (hat be has not onfy
?iuiioritcd (he philanthropic spirit of
John Burdoi, h|it also iiia wound bua
ineaa aenao. ilo spoke a aorloua truth
when ho reminded tho municipal a u
thoritlea of Camden, and the County
Oommtflslonorff of tho ract that it
la their imperative duty to aaaiat
wit]) the public funda in tho main
tenance of tiiia hospital. The freo
clinic, aa I have endeavored to allow,
will rollove them of many present
and future burdens. It will be mo
ney economically apent for '"the
atitcli in time," to help thia clinic
to relieve the working people in the
earliest atagea of disease, and thus
maintain their working capacity.
My heart has been ao full, and my
vlaion ao filled, by tho glorious fu
ture of tho hospital, that 1 havo fail
ed to refer to its perfect present.
1 ahall tell my aou Bernard, that I
am delighted with the medieal ar
rangement of the hospital, which
hear -testimony to tho good judge
ment and advanced ideaa of Dr. Cor
hett, Dr. Burdell and the other med
ical men of this town, and I shall
alao convey to him my admiring
aurpriae at the beauty and complete
ness of the hospital, which surpass
my moot sanguine anticipations, and
tho skillful household arrangements
of the Dadies Auxiliary Sqciety. Es
pecially rejoiced am I in tho appear
ance of the re-constructed Manse,
which has long been an almost sa
cred landmark to you, as tho home
of beloved spiritual guides. To thy
self it is especially gratifying to note
the beauty and completeness of its
architecture, because 1 succeeded in
persuading my son, who desired to
present to you a perfectly new build
ing, an idea that was supported by
the architect, to permit, the Manse
to be used for administration and
medlcai purposes, and for private
rooms Surely the latter are supe
rior to any private rooms in any
hospital I have ever seen.
I accept with pleasure the oppor
tunity or suggostoni by Dr. Burdell
to assist in any manner in the or
ganization or maintenance of the
medical side of the hospital.
When Mr. Shannon shall have
completed the plans for the grounds
of the hospital, with that artistic
taste for land-scape gardening he
appears to have inherited, among
other qualities, from his lamented
father, the people of this' community
will indeed have reason to be proud
of the "Camden Hospital.". .
At the close of the exercises ('apt
Shannon regd to the audience the
following telegram from Mr. Ber
nard M. Baruch which had just
been received from New York:
New York , I )ec. 1 , 1 S> 1 .
\V. M. Shannon, Camden, S. C.
Your letter of November 2tith,
with inclosure received- 1 am for
warding you check for $1,100. Gli to
cover final and entire cost of hospi
tal as it was my intention to give
it complete.
1 regret exceedingly that I can
not be will) you today, hut feel that
i-t iu more your and your associates
than it is my day, as the unselfish
devotion of you and the people of
Camden has done more to bring to
a successful termination .this work
than anything that 1 have done.
I trust that the hospital will bring
to the poor and suffering of Cam
den all 4 hat we wish.
B. M. Baruch. N
Mr. Shannon stated by way of ex
planation of this telegram that Mr.
Baruch had discovered that in the
completion of the hospital building
there were several items which were
not embraced in the original con
tract which were found necessary to
a tasteful and satisfactory comple
tion, and which expense it was con
templated would be borne by the
hospital Directors out of other funds
in their hands. That Mr. Baruch
wrote for a statement of these ex
tras as he was unwilling tha-t the
community should be taxed with any
portion of the construction of this
hospital. That as Chairman of the
building committee Mr. Shannon felt
it his duty to give Mr. Baruch the
information asked for, nnd that the
telegram which was read notified
the hospital committee of the check
wtiicli had hoen forwarded to cover
the extras. The amount of this last
check makes Mr. Bernard M. Ba
rucli's expenditure in this hospital
and grounds about $40,000. The ap
plause which followed the reading of
this telegram and the explanation of
the Chairman was evidence of the
gratitude felt to Mr. Baruch for his
generosity.
