Dear Doctor: 
The Committee of Administration of Georgetown 
University Hospital, heg leave to announce that their 
Hospital wilt be open for the reception of patients by 
August 15, 1898. 
The free beds are for the benefit of indigent 
sick, but evidence of dependency will have to be 
furnished according to the rules of the Medical Associ- 
ation of the District of Columbia, before admission is 
granted. 
Seven rooms have been fitted up for the ac- 
commodation of pay patients, and the privilege of attend- 
ing private patients in these rooms is extended to all 
members of the Medical Association and to Surgeons 
of the Army, Navy and the Marine Hospital Service. 
The domestic management and nursing of the 
Hospital will be in charge of a colony of Sisters from 
the St. Agnes Hospital of Philadelphia, and it is hoped 
the Medical Profession of Washington will avail itself 
freely of the opportunities afforded by this Institution 
for the care of such of their patients as may be in 
need of hospital facilities. The Hospital will have well- 
equipped Emergency and Dispensary services also. 
Very truly yours, 
JOS. TABER JOHNSON, Chairman.
