Gorham Bacon, Dr. David A. Greer and William Reed Huntington from St. The infirmary was almost as busy as ever. The halls and reception rooms were crowded, the wards full, the operating rooms abuzz with 37, new patients, 12, outdoor patients, and 2, indoor patients, providing a total of 23, days of hospital care.

Surely there would be no need for eloquent appeals in behalf of the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary if you could look into the darkness which the blind see and listen to the stillness which the deaf hear.
