THE FOUNDLING HOSPITAL
FIFTY-SIX ACRES. ALL TO BE BUILT ON. (Received 1.30 p.u.) LONDON, May 27. Interest attaches to the impending removal of the famous Foundling Hospital at Bloomsbury to the country, and the purchase of the site (about s<i acres) at a cost of £1,750,000, by a company for building purposes, by the fact that one lof the directors of the company is Mr. Sam Copley West, an Australian millionaire, who achieved fame a few years ago by purchasing a large slice of Huddersfield (a clothing town of Yorkshire, population 100,000), and Jiis birthplace, and presenting it to the corporation.— (A. and X.Z. Cable.)
