OLD HOSPITAL RECORDS.
The details of a childhood illness
in 1840, called for by a physician in
treating the complaints of a woman
now eighty-five years of age, have
been brought to light from the sub
cellar vaults of the New York hos
pital, says the Brooklyn Eagle. The
case is cited by officials of the
United States hospital fund as an
illustration of the myriad details of
hospital management that make the
operation of efficient medical insti
tutions so expensive. The records
in point, 80 years ago, were said to
be remarkably well preserved, and
gave the precise details of each day’s
stay at the hospital, when the pa
tient was a child of five. Some of
the records in this vault go back to
the days of the Revolutionary war
and are believed to be the oldest
hospital statistics in New York.
