Old Maids Home To Be Built In York After Dying Spinster's Bequest
A York Pennsylvania project named Hahn Home will house women who are single or widowed, funded by a nearly half million dollar bequest. The plan aims to provide companionship without charity stigma, with a rugged German surname to avoid the term old maid. The piece compares the home to Sailors' Snug Harbor and contemplates hopes, loneliness, and self-reliance among residents.
