CONSUMPTIVES' HOME AT CAMBRIDGE.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —in to-night’s issue of the Auckland Star there is a report of the special meeting of the Cambridge Borough Council re the proposed home for consumptives. It seems to me that the residents of Cambridge should be grateful to the lady in question, rather than do all they can to hinder her. Looking at the proposal from only their own selfish point of view, it must be more tor the public benefit to have such a homo as is proposed, registered as a private hospital, under the control of the Health Department, and subject to strict rules such as are enforced at the Sanatorium, than to have consumptives stayiug at any house or hotel that will take them in, as they are nowdoing. Dr. Frenley’s statement as to the danger being less than it now is should convince even the Borough Council.—l am, etc., Humanity. Auckland, October 7,1901.
