It was understood if they voted for the bond istbe erection of the hospital lid be among the first things the program to be carried out.
and that the building would be erected on a site at Goode and St. Ferdinand Avenues, convenient to serve the bulk of the Colored population here. Since^gpproving the bond issue mov^hent, several years ago, nothing has been done toward erecting the hospital. City hospital No. 2 that is used for Colored people, is an outrage, and disgrace and should be closed as soon as possible, according to Dr. Haven Emerson, white, of New York City, in an address here several days ago before the Chamber of Commerce. His criticism was based on the findings of a survey conducted here by the American Public Health Association, under his direction.

temple, a shrine to Prince Hall masonry in New York, and thruout the world, nearly disrupted the New York order, caused Jos. L. Sullivan, the Grand Master of the New York lodges, a nervous breakdown and resulted in the general clean out of Sullivan’s staff of officers at the last Grand lodge
session.
It was the intent of the lodge to raise enough money through bond sales among the masonic craft to erect the building. The craft failed to support Sullivan, and as a result, the skeleton of the building was erected, leaving i the lodges greatly in debt. On Jan. 9, a final judgment of mortgage foreclosure and sale was obtained in the courts here before Justice Thomas C. T. Crain. The action was brought through Attorney Oliver D. Williams for the protection of the bondholders since the Prince Hall Temple and Home Association, Inc., manifested! an inability to pay the interest due bondholders on their bonds. While the investors will not recover the entire amount of their investment:" the amount they will receive depends on the price the property will bring at the sale.
