Description

At the turn of the century there were fewer than 80 million people living in the United States Eight thousand cars traveled less than 10 miles of paved roads and firstclass stamps cost a penny apiece The average worker earned 1298 per week and could expect to live less than 47 years and Mrs Emma Smith decided that Frederick City needed a hospital A determined civic leader Mrs Smith was able to rally the community to the cause and in July of 1901 the corner stone for Frederick City Hospital was laid Just 10 months later on May 1 1902 the hospital opened its doors They have remained open every moment of every day since
