ROYAL LONDON OPHTHALMIC HOSPITAL , BL ' OMFIELU STREET , MOORFIELUS , E . C . The Committee earnestly appeal to the Benevolent for Help to raise A SPECIAL FUND TO REBUILD This most necessary Hospital . How immensely the Hospital is appreciated may be seen from the following figures for the past yean-New Out-Patients treated , 25 , 558 . In-Patients „ 1 , 892 . The total attendances of Out-Patients vvere 109 , 756 , and 2126 operations vvere performed , in many instances restoring their sight to those vvho had been deprived of it . All Patients are admitted free and without letters of recommendation , necessity being the one credential . The necessity for the erection of a New Building is most urgent , as the accommodation at present is totally inadequate to the ever-increasing calls upon its resources . Contributions to the Building Fund and Annual Subscriptions will be thankfully received by J DEACON , Esq ., Treasurer and Trustee at the banking house of Messrs . W ILLIAMS , DEACON , and Co ., 20 , Birchin-lane , and at the Hospital by ROBERT J . NEWSTEAD , Secretary .
