The Oamaru Hospital Contributors

The Oamaru Hospital Contributors . (Incorporated under the Hospital and Charitable Aid Institutions' Act, 1885, and Amendment Act, 1886.) The trustees for 1903 were: Messrs J. Mainland (president), W. H. Rose, A. J. S. Headland, W. C. McDouall, J. H. Barr, and D. Hay; Mr. J. Church (secretary). The trustees are entrusted with the management of the Oamaru Hospital, and derive their revenue mainly from a Provincial Government grant of four thousand acres at Livingstone and Kauroo. The properties are let at a rental which amounts to £915 per annum. Local subscriptions amount to about £100 a year, and on this the institution obtains a Government subsidy of twenty-four shillings per pound. The accumulated funds amount to about £3000, which is bearing interest. The annual expenditure of the hospital is over £1300 a year.
