City physician backs plan to buy Stone's Castle for smallpox hospital
Doctor Hogeboom argues to purchase Stone's castle, a mile west of Washburn College, from an eastern investor for 6400 to convert into a hospital for contagious diseases. Bethel college now leases the building, but the city would gain a modern facility with multiple rooms and potential revenue from paying patients. The current pest house grounds would be needed for the State fair this fall. Rev. Jourmham of Bethel College will conduct services in Kansas City as part of outreach this weekend.
