This Volume forms the Sixth Annual Issue of BURDETT'S HOSPITAL AND 

 CHARITIES ANNUAL. Very strenuous efforts have been made to render the 

 information contained therein absolutely correct. The particulars given in every 

 Section, as well as those which deal with individual Institutions, have been made 

 uniform throughout. No one need now refer to THE ANNUAL without finding in 

 its pages, on all the essential points, the desired information. It contains informa- 

 tion concerning Hospitals, Asylums, Nursing Institutions, and Charities generally, 

 not only in Great Britain and Ireland, but thi'oughout the British Empire, India, 

 and the United States of America. Members of committees, practitioners of 

 medicine, trustees, and others with estates to administer, and the supporters and 

 officials of all Institutions find it indispensable as a reliable book of reference ; 

 it being widely acknowledged that, as such, it is without a rival for completeness of 

 detail and accuracy of information.
