nei be g opened hboring at ladies Easter for . subscri An _jDtions _sqypeal _- to has meet been the building made among expenses the ; ,
and as a great part of that sum still remains to be collected , the admirers of so noble an undertaking are informed that assistance
is still required , and asked in the name of the suffering sick of Middlesbro ' , and that contributions will be thankfully received and .
acknowledged hy the Lady Superintendent , Cottage Hospital , Middlesbro ' . The services of more voluntary and unpaid . nurses are
also required , and their presence and help would greatly assist those who are endeavoring , under God's blessing , to be of use to both
body and soul of these poor fellows ; and we believe that by so presenting themselves wholly a living sacrifice , the gift would not
only be acceptable unto God , but prove a mighty instrument in His hands to promote a cause which it is so highly desirable to advocate
in this country , viz . voluntary nursing ; and by so stepping forward _, they would aid the establishment of a class of women who would thus
learn from higher motives than any that can possibly spring fronx mere paid duty , to devote their talents and energy systematically , to
seek out and succour the sorrowful and the suffering . Although frequent mention has been made in this Journal of the
cottage hospital , we believe that few of our readers are acquainted with the peculiar nature of the institution ; we therefore again beg :
to draw attention to the following facts : —That Middlesbro ' , with a _pojmlation of _upwards of 13 , 000 inhabitants , contained no hospital ,
for its sick till this Home Mission was commenced by Miss ; that several amputations have been performed within its walls , and .
over 2 , 000 wounds have been dressed by unpaid nurses during the past year ; that the cottages originally taken for the use of the
patients are obviously too small for the accommodation of the sick who crowd the doors ; that a larger and more convenient house
will be opened in March at North Ormesby ; that the projectors and . designers of this scheme are in want of further funds : and having
thus brought the sufferers and their wants to your very door , we lay them tenderly at your feet , and ask that , for Jesus _Christ's sake , you .
will stretch out your hand and help your brother to rise .
