Abstract
The affairs of the Infirmary and Lunatic Hospital continued till Michaelmas 1790 when a particular scrutiny was made into the rules and government of the charities; and so many additions and alterations made in them that almost an entire new system was introduced. Six physicians and six surgeons were then appointed to manage the whole business of their profession. Compleat assistance was provided for the poor in every malady to which they are subject and for which the art of man has yet found a remedy.
