Thc report of the Woman's Hospital association was called for, but it was announced that no report was prepared .and that tho association had practically disbanded. Mr3.

Following the report of the medical directors In which it was mentioned that President Ligen had been think ing of resigning, and calling upon him not to do sn at this time, Mr. Ligon feelingly spoke of thc love he had for the hospital, and for tho work he b?v' done while connected with lt. Nc I lng ho had ever done was nearer -: : heart than this work, and he had con sulted with no one in reference to his | thought of resigning, but had asked Divine guidance. He would rather, give up life Itself than his connection with the hospital, so he had conclud ed to try to remain' in his official ca pacity for another year, but he wished to assure those present that If he should over resign his position offi cially he would never cease to work for tho institution. Those present expressed their ap preciation for the faithfulness with which Mr. Ligon had served the hos pital by a rising vote of thanks.

Ligon prepared the following report for the meeting: President Ligen'? Report. To the Friends and Subscribers ot the Anderson County Hospital: I hereby present for your consider ation my seventh annual report of the work and condition of your hos pital. It ts one In which y?w can re joice and feel that you have done something for suffering humanity.

Ont of this numbs.' we have cared for 86 free patients. The cost of maintain jig th? hospi tal for the year has been 115,748.42 and the receipts, have been $14,218.58. Now counting two weeks to each free patient we have taken care of 8t> at a cont of $1,337.30, this means free medicine,' frfee doctor's treatment and free board and nursing. Beeide? we have eared for in the wards 139 pa tients, for which the hospital receiv ed about an average of one half of what lt cost I emphasise this portie ct of our work a? lt te a source of great Joy to me and I know lt ls to yon, to think that it ls our privilege to maintain such an Institution in our city. 1 know' God has blessed every donor and caused their hearts to rejoice aa they have seen the resulta of tholr la bor of love for humanity. We have been running smoothly iurlflg the year without any friction whatever and this speaks wei! for the management and the doctors. I de rire to thank all of the doctors for their kindness in overlooking the ihort comings of the president and tba nurses. I feel that we all have lone, not our best, hut as near' lt as ls it possible for human nature to do. Oar ; present superintendent. Miss [X>ckT?n has'been with tis almost a fear and has been faithful la the dis eting of Association charge of her duties, as have also the hoad nurse and the pupil nnrBes. I thunk the city council In behalf of the Institution for their continu ance of the appropriation. As a citi zen I hope it will always he given as human lives are worth more than any obligation we have. While I am writing this there has been brought tc tho hospital an emergency case. A poor man's little girl, badly burned and perhaps fatally, but according to his testimony she has been suffering tr.rturo at home all day. She la quiet and sleeping now under the tender care of this institution, free of charge. God bless her and the people that support such an Institution. Respectfully submitted, R. S.
