 This is the picture of our new Hospital, the gift of Air. 
 Samuel J. Broadwell of Cincinnati, to be used as a memorial 
 for his wife, a \hce-President of our Society, and a promi- 
 nent founder of our Cincinnati Branch. 
 
 In 1907 our Missions in India were increased by opening 
 a new station in Fatehpur, a district where 1,408 villages 
 with a population of 686,391 surrounding the city of 19,000 
 inhabitants, formed a vast field where as yet no Christian 
 teaching had been inaugurated for its myriad of zenanas. 
 
 The year 1909 saw the successful erection of a Memorial 
 Dispensary, given by a generous friend, where medical work 
 was carried on by a physician, a graduate nurse, and native 
 assistants. This department developing rapidly, the necessity 
 pressed for the erection of a Hospital, as patients came 
 hundreds of miles for relief from suffering. 
 
 This then, seemed the providential opportunity for the 
 
LILY LYTLE BROADW H 
 
 consecrated memorial gift of Mr. Broadwell. Ten acres of 
 land with "beautiful mango groves uixrn it” was secured, 
 and the corner-stone of the Lily Lytle Broadzvell Memorial 
 Hospital was laid November 25th, 1909. 
 
 From our missionary, Miss Alice Wishart, we have this 
 little pen-picture of the Hospital. “The road is a wide 
 smooth track, lined with magnificent pepul trees which 
 almost meet overhead, and Ixrrdered on both sides hv green 
 fields and groves. I felt a thrill of pride as we crossed

 the wide space between the new wire fence and the build- 
 ing, which gives promise of what is yet to come. When 
 I saw the crowd at the little Memorial Dispensary and heard 
 of the numbers they were having daily, it did not require 
 a stretch of imagination to see the new Hospital filled to 
 overflowing after it is opened to patients.” The adjoining 
 grounds are rapidly developing in beauty, and lOO chrysan- 
 themum plants were donated as the nucleus of a garden. 
 
 Here in attractive surroundings, with a throng of the 
 
sufifering women of India waiting for admission, the Lily 
 Lytic Broadzccll Memorial Hospital was opened in 1910, our 
 Jubilee year. A gifted young physician, Dr. Grace Spencer, 
 is associated with Dr. IMina INIcKenzie, and our Graduate 
 Nurse, who has a corps of native assistants under training. 
 
 Many beds are already furnished for occupation, and en- 
 dowments for several at $600 each, have been given. 
 
 WAuld you not feel it a priceless privilege to perpetuate 
 in that far-ofif land where women have been doomed to priva- 
 tion and suffering for countless ages, the memory of some 
 loved one? If this be not possible, will you not send 
 twenty-five dollars, which will support a bed for one year. 
 Smaller sums would provide medicines or other necessaries 
 in the Hospital. 
 
 The support of a native nurse is fifty dollars annually, 
 and in assuming this a double benefit is secured, to a patient 
 and to the young native girl who is training for a life of 
 usefulness. How many who have known the untold value 
 of trained nurses in cases of serious illness, would be will- 
 ing to pass on this benefit to suffering women in India? 
 
 We need the help of every f^-iend.
