STATES DR. ALCORN
N£W SEWARD HOSPITAL IS REAL
ITY WITH ARRIVAL DR. AL
CORN FROM SEATTLE
Actual work on tlie repairing and
general renovating of the former
Catholic hospital, began today, an
nounces Dr. R. J. Alcorn, who, ac
companied by Mrs. Alcorn, returned
to Seward Saturday from the States.
Dr. Alcorn has leased the building
jin which he will establish a modern
hospital. Prior to the completion of
[the building for occupancy, two pro
jfessional nurses will arrive from
Spokane. Lt is stated the sum of
[approximately $10,000 will be spent
by Dr. Alcorn in the establishment
Jof the hospital and, contrary to a
number of former reports and ru
imors, no financial donations have
been or will be asked.
A considerable amount of hospital
equipment was brought North by Dr.
Alcorn, other equipment and supplies
are intransiit while still more has
yet to be purchased.
Dr. Alcorn has a plan for starting
the hospital off on a substantial
basis which, due to the fact it has
been successful on a former occasion,
will be worked out in Seward. Pri
marily the plan consists of disposal
of hospital certificates which in turn
will be credited to one’s account.
Details will be published in a later
issue of The Gateway. As related
to The Gateway, the plan seems
quite practical and little difficulty,
it is believed, will be experienced in
seeing his plan carried through to a
successful conclusion.
For a period of about 12 years, Dr.
Alcorn practiced at Grangeville, Ida.;
he was also, at a later date, the
most prominent physician and sur
geon in the (city of Sand Point, Ida
ho. In 1025 he was the resident
physician and surgeon for the Chi
chagoff Mining Company, in South
eastern Alaska, and until a few
months ago, was in charge of the
Alaska Railroad hospital at Anchor
age.
As a physician and surgeon Dr.
Alcorn comes to Seward with a high
ly successful career, being thorough
ly competent. Mrs. Alcorn, is also
a registered physician, but in partic
ular is a specialist on eye, ear and
throat. She recently completed a
post graduate course in Chicago.
It was Dr. Alcorn’s intention to
have established a hospital in Sew
ard some months ago, but on ac
count of the illness of Mrs. Alcorn,
was force|! to awaif her recovery.
Though net yet entirely recovered
she is improving rapidly. For the
present Dr. and Mr3. Alcorn are
at the Van Gilder hotel.
