New Hospital For Incurables Groundbreaking Ceremony
A large crowd witnessed the cornerstone laid yesterday afternoon for the new Hospital for Incurables at South Boulevard and Woodward Avenue. London attendees included Knights Templar and Odd Fellows, with speeches by Mayor Howell, Charles Bayne, and Rabbi Marx praising the ladies' fundraising. The plan is to expand capacity and future-proof the hospital, guided by the Atlanta circle of the King's Daughters. A separate injunction hearing against the project was postponed to next Saturday, with Judge Lumpkin coordinating jury business around motions. Petitioners claim the site will cause disease and lower property values. the hospital argues the new building will improve care and later expansion. Attorneys Upshaw for petitioners and Rosser & Brandon for the hospital were involved.
