FOR ESTA BLISHING St. LUKE’s HOSPITAL

FOR LUNATIC KS»

E Ufefulnefs and Neceflity of Hbfpitals in general being at prefent fo well underftood in THthis Kingdom, it will be needlefs to offer any Conflderations on thofe Heads. But it may not be im- proper to lay before the Publick, the particular Reafons and Inducements for the letting on Foot a new Defign of this Sort, for the Relief of poor Lunaticks.

I. Experience had long fhewn, that the Hofpital of Bethlem was incapable of receiving and providing for the Relief of all the unhappy Obje&s of this Sort,

who made Application for it ; this Truth can be at- tefted by every Governor of that Houfe. and by every Perfon to whole Lot it has fallen, to folicit the Admiffion of a Patient into it.

11. That the Expence and Difficulty attending the

Admiffion of a Patient into the Hofpital of Betblem y had difeouraged many Applications for the Benefit of that Charity, particularly on behalf of the more neceffitous Objeds, and of fuch who refided in the remote Parts of the Kingdom.

111. That by this unavoidable Exclufion, or Delay in the Admiffion of Objeds of this Sort, many ufeful Members have been 101 l to Society, either by the Dif- order gaining Strength beyond the Reach of Ph\fick» or by the Patients falling into the Hands of Perfons utterly unfkilled in the Treatment of the Diforder, or who have found their Advantage in negleding every Method neceflary to obtain a Cure.

IV. That many Families, (in no mean Circumftances) through the heavy Expence attending the Support of one Objed of this Sort, have themfelves become Objeds of charitable Relief, and thereby doubled ths Load and Lofs to the Publick.

V. That the moft fatal Ads of Violence on them- felves, Attendants and Relations, have been often con- iequent on the fmalleft Delay in placing the afflided with this Diforder the Care of Perfons experienced in guarding againft and preventing Attempts of this Kind,

VI. That no particular Provifion is made by Law foi Lunaticks, the common Parilh Work-houles being no ways proper for their Reception, either in Point ot Accommodation, Attendance, or Phyfical Affiftance.

VII. That the joining this to any other Hofpital not particularly adapted for the Reception of Lunaticks, would have been highly improper and dangerous; the joining it to Bethlem would have deprived it of two of its principal Advantages, the being under the im- mediate Infpedion and Government of its own Patrons and S’uppoiters (inafmuch as no Benefadion to Beth- lem, how great foever necefiarily conftitutes the Lonor a Governor of that Holpital), and of introducing more Gentlemen ot the Faculty to the Study and Pradice of one of the moft important Branches of Phyfick, already too long confined (almod; to a fingle PeiTon.

Such, and fuch only, were the Motives of the firlt Promoters of this Defign; the Weight they have had in the general Opinion, the Largenefs of the Sum paid in abundantly teftifies, and leaves no Room to doubt of .the Continuation of the like benevolent Difpofition in the future Support of it; and, for the Convenience of fuch Perfons who are difpofed to affift in the Completion of this good Work, either by annual Subfcriptions, or otherwife, the following Places are appointed for taking in their Benefadlions:
