The communication submitted by the board of trustees of Reid Memorial hospital to the city council is of great interest to the citizens of this city as it gives detailed information concerning the institution not generally known. An account of the passage of the hospital appropriation bill over the mayor's veto is to be found in another column. The statement of
the trustees in full is as iouows.
To the Common Council
of Richmond: Gentlemen: The Board of Trustees of
Reid Memorial hospital
natient attention to
statement in view of the somewhat extraordinary message of His Ifonor. the mayor, vetoing the ordinance unanimously passed by you March 18th, making an appropriation to aid in the maintenance of the hospital. We have assumed that, the statements published in our city papers at the time the original appropriations were made . that the objections of the mayor and city attorney to the appropriations were
based wholly upon the ground that no
law then authorized tnem and
they, were willing to assist in procur
ing the passage of an act wnicn wouici authorize them, were correctly reported and emanated from these officers and as we have had an act passed by the legislature which does expressly authorize your ordinance of March 18th, the veto message is a surprise to us. At our last regular meeting, held before this ordinance was pented to you, we appointed a special committee consisting of Mr. Deuker, a member of your body and of our board Tr. Bond, your" health officer, Dr. Davis, Dr. Wampler and George Egge-mever-to submit to us a plan and es
timate of the cost of a building to be erected on the hospital grounds, to consist of three or more wards, mainly for the use of the city for the care of contagious and infectious diseases, as scarlet fever, diphtheria and like disrr. 'which we can not now receive
in the-hospital because of the danger involved to other patients. Having no reason to expect further opposition from any city officer, our purpose was and yet is, to construct a building - for the purpose indicated, and in legal form to guarantee the city's use, but it is in line with every declaration we have made to the peo- . r l i : i ... Vi timp of tbe
pie Ol iue in j iivjiu - dedication ceremonies of the hospital to this hour, viz, that . the hospital is- in no sense a private institution, that it does not belong to the trustees, but does belong to all the people of Richmond and that, its trustees in its management are administering a
trust for the benefit of the people to whom it belongs. Your appropriation ordinance is vetoed by hishonor. the mayor, upon
tnree grounds, as we uaucioiuim message. viz: That it was not recommended by a majority of the board of health. That the Act of the legislature authorizes appropriations to a hospital established as a gift for the benefit of the people of the city, and that the Reid Memorial hospital was not so established, and the appropria
tion is therefore illegal, and that such hospital is a private institution, with which our people have no special interest or concern. ... . Not a Personal Matter. This is not a personal matter with the trustees of the hospital, gentlemen, V and it is because . we represent all the : people of this city who own this institution, that we are unwilling that the statements of fact in his honor, the mayors veto message should pass unchallenged.
You are told that since July, 19., when the hospital was opened, you
have been called upon to donate $0,000 tn Hofrav its running expenses: the in-
cil was appointed, and that committee reported to your body and recommended an appropriation for the remainder of the year l'. of $3,00O, and of $J,OUO
to be included in the general appropri j ation ordinance for 1WT, and that these .rUHnnt: aprp made upon the
ixyyi tu l ' no -
recommendation of your committee, $l,7fC only was paid, the item of $;,-
00O was placed in me oiui""
10O7, and was vetoed by the mayor ana passed again unanimously; the- present comptroller refused to-issue a warrant for further payment until the enabling act was passed, and which act has now been passed by our legislature. As a result of our conference with your special committee, and to fulfill our promise then made to you Mr. Deuker, then chairman of your committee on finance, was elected a member of our board, with equal powers with all other trustees, to represent the city and your honorable body in the management. We beg to advise council, that we are advised, and we believe well advised.

ih Kfem that, everv citizen of
Richmond ought to know how this hospital was established. Our city papers have published the facts many times. Our esteemed and more than
generous fellow citizen, Mr. Daniel G. Reid, proposed to give $oO,OCO to es-j tablish a hospital for the people of this, his home city, upon condition that the
quainted with the facts, that this bosnital has been established, constructed
and organized as a gift to the people
of ihP citv of Richmond," sounds al
most srrotesaue. and suggests the wish
that His Honor might have thought it proper to consult some of his friends upon our Board as to' the facts involved, or your own records, and the
report of your special committee, re lating to these appropriations. The statements of His Honor, re
citizens would contribute $L',".0O0 as an jatjng to the per capita cost of charity
nHnwmprt to aid its maintenance,
Our citizens did contribute generally and generously to this fund, and with $10,000 of the Morrisson fund at the disposal of the city, contributed by your honorable body, the amount was raised. That amount actually given by Mr. Reid in the end amounted to aimost double the amount originally
promised.
