TO THE SUBSCRIBERS
OF THE
NEWRY DISPENSARY & FEVER
HOSPITAL.
MY LORDS, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
IN consequence of the melancholy death of my
esteemed friend and coadjutor, DOCTOR
MORRISON, the whole duty and responsibility of the
Dispensary and Fever Hospital has necessarily
devolved on me for the time being ; but as your Annual
Meeting is approaching, and as an active and rather
unprecedented Canvass (as I have been informed) has
taken place, I deem it incumbent on my own part to
address you, and to solicit your influence and support in
offering to undertake the entire Management of the
Establishment.
Having performed a very large share of the Medical,
and the entire of the Surgical practice of the Dispensary,
&c. &c., for the last three years, as the books can testify,
I feel myself perfectly adequate to conduct the whole,
usefully to the Poor, and I hope, with satisfaction to the
Patrons of the Institution ; and, resting my claim on
these considerations, as well as on the very small remune-
ration I have hitherto received,--having been obliged to
engage an Assistant for compounding Medicine‹to keep
an additional Horse‹and to pay various small sums,
incident to the situation;--these, in truth, have rendered
it to me almost gratuitous.
It is not seemly for me to allude to any services I may
have rendered to the objects of this Charity, or to the
mode of conducting business of the Institution, or to
the attention paid the Fever Hospital of 1817-18 and 19
--but I may say, if these deserve any mark of approba-
tion, you have it now in your power to reward me in a
manner more grateful to my feelings than any other, and
without any additional expense.
I may also add, that should a difficulty occur at any
time in the Medical Department, the friendly point of
view in which I have always been regarded by the
Physicians of NEWRY will, at once, enable me to obtain
their opinions jointly. Their Letters, on my behalf,
addressed to the Committee, will I trust, be satisfactory to
you ; and, submitting these and myself to your considera-
tion, I remain,
My Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your faithful humble servant,
G. W. BELL, Surgeon.
Boat-street, 21st January, 1828.
