Wellington District Hospital committee weighs open-air additions grant
Wellington and District Hospital committee met last Monday with Mr W T Pridham presiding. They deferred the £5 grant for open-air additions to the male ward pending state estimates. A letter to Mr Fuller was proposed to remind him of his promise to fund the work. The tea tent controversy prompted letters from Mrs Ross and praise for Farnham volunteers. The matron’s report noted 29 patients with several admissions and discharges. donations were acknowledged. Treasurer’s report showed about £140 in credit, with subsidy awaited. Visiting committee reported satisfactory operation and possible nurse quarters work. Disputes over nurse references led to a plan to request the matron’s reasons in writing. The Peerless Orchestra was thanked for a charitable performance.
