Note 99 — Chapter II · BETHLEM HOSPITAL AND ST. LUKE'S.
Reading edition
These particulars are taken from St. Luke's Annual Report of 1851, containing a retrospective sketch of its history, for the use of which we are indebted to the present superintendent, Dr. Mickley. Statistics of recovery are given for different periods, but the fallacies attending such comparisons are so great that I have not cited the figures.
