Description | It has become clear from the report dated on the 8th of Huzayrân (1)314, which was presented by the hospital doctor, that the hospital needs 767 arms length of textiles for the mattresses and sitting rooms of the patients. Accordingly, the council has decided to appoint one of us, the respectable Na‘ûs Effendi to purchase the needed textiles with the knowledge of the municipality and one of the nuns, and bring a receipt for the amount to pay the needed funds from the municipality’s treasury. In order to obtain approval, this decision was taken on the 20th of Huzarian (1)314 (2nd of July 1898). [6 signatures] |
